That sounds good. Will do tonight when I get home!

On another note although hydrometers are cheaper they tend to become much less accurate with age, dropping $75.00 on my refractometer was one of the best purchases I have ever made on my tank.

I got my refractometer off eBay for $35.

I have a standard hydrometer you can have for free to get you by for now.

M ike, that would be great! I just looked on Ebay and found one I would like to order, where in the city are you? text me if your like 587-985-7866 tasha.

Yes get a refractometer from ebay. Kinda like the one's in the store but without any brand. Plus the only different that I would guess between the cheaper ones and the brand ones is that you might need to calibrate the meter more often. Other than that, its just a piece of prism through a tube so shouldn't have much of a difference :P

Stay away from hydrometer! They are probably the worst piece of equipment made for saltwater :|

I never had luck with my hydrometers
I got rid of them 2 weeks after starting my tank and replaced them with this.

While you're at JL you may want to take note that they're test kits and Seachem products (prime,stability ) are the cheapest. Even with shipping
which you don't have to worry about most of the time because it's free with a 100.00 in product.

Just for giggles compare two hydrometer readings from 2 different units with the same water.
you'll see why they're not popular.
