SRC Member cdckjn Posted July 15, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted July 15, 2007 it should be salt water with all the muck. Some of the reefers got kopi-thick stuff while some gets Chinese tea so the liquid or foam should have salt content in them. That's why after a while we need to measure our S.g. of the water and do regular top up and and do a 10% water change to maintain s.g.

Salt water or DI water! actually you need to top up a little of both. if you wet skim, you will lose some saltwater, and this needs to be topped up. but you also need to top up fresh water due to normal evaporation from the tank.
