SRC Member Tanzy Posted December 30, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted December 30, 2003 Replace only what you have lost. Evaporated water does not carry salt with it, so when you top up water, use pure water. Quote Warning: Heavy handed moderator in operation.

SRC Member Tanzy Posted December 30, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted December 30, 2003 If it is saltwater that you lost, then replace with saltwater. Quote Warning: Heavy handed moderator in operation.

SRC Member Tanzy Posted December 30, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted December 30, 2003 juz top it up wif dechlorinated water. No no no! His cannister leaked and saltwater came out. Replace with saltwater, not freshwater. Quote Warning: Heavy handed moderator in operation. Threads and post are liable to be deleted or moved without prior notification.

SRC Member Domino Posted January 14, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted January 14, 2004 Anyway, as you don't know how much was lost to evaporation and how much lost to a leak in that same period, you should check salinity after you top up to make sure all is ok, no matter what you top up with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightningstrike Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 no matter how much u hv lost to evaporation, salt still remains in the tank.
