I have been a saltwater aquarist for more than a year now and so far my efforts have been very rewarding with my FO tank.
I still have a lot to learn but this is a silly question that I have in my mind for sometime now.
Is it okay to adjust salinity of your saltwater by dissolving rock salt to a distilled water and adding it up to the tank? Just to meet an additional .01 or.02 on the water's specific gravity?
Don't get me wrong, I am not going to use this water entirely but just to add up on the saltwater's specific gravity. I haven't done this so I'd like to know.
Hope I could get some helpful response. Great to be here and thanks.
