salinity issues can be solved with two things
1) Auto top off (best investment ever) 2) refactometer(sp) instead of a hydrometer. The ato will keep your levels constant and the refract will ensure you are actually at 1.026sg

+1 on the ATO
For the first few weeks that I had mine I thought I had a leak some where...lol, as you will be shocked to find out just how often the ATO pump kicks in to keep up with evaporation.

Have to agree with Jon..... Probably the best addition you will ever make to your system....and if you wan the best of the best then go with the Tunze

before I got an auto-top off I drew a line on my sump that marked the high water level for when the sump was running. If you're always filling it back to that line, your salinity shouldn't be increasing, in fact your skimmer should slowly (in a big system, VERY slowly) decrease your salinity and it removes salt water and you replace it with fresh.
Tunze ATO systems are the best by leaps and bounds
