SRC Member erikokelf Posted April 15, 2015 Author SRC Member Share Posted April 15, 2015 Yup I know bro. But if you do some Google search, the result is not accurate using rodi. There's quite alot of such discussion over calibration and majority have experience inaccurate result using rodi.

xiggie Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Use distilled water set the refractometer to 1.000. The refractometer is only as accurate as your eye permit unless you are using a digital one. Quote Stairway to Heaven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member DottyClown Posted April 15, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'm using Distilled Water too. That's what the lfs recommended too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member nemokit Posted April 15, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted April 15, 2015 Agrees with xiggie. The fish/ coral do accept a slight variation of salinity, hence need not be very accurate. In fact, salinity will varies depending on temperate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
