Regarding the typo, the 22kg bucket makes about 150 gallons at 1.024 according to my calculations. It says 380 grams of salt makes 10 liters of saltwater at 1.024. So 22 kg should make 150 gallons.

According to the link above for the salt testing, it takes 415 grams of Aquaforest Reef Salt (not the probiotic one) to make 10 liters of saltwater at 35 ppt (1.0264), so that would mean 22 kg bucket would make 140 gallons at 1.0264.
