Hmmm, what is the benefits of running salinity at 1.026? The fish stores tell me to run at 1.024.

Dude.... if your changing your water weekly or even every 2 weeks the change in salinity due to skimming & creep is not an issue. I can't believe this thread is still active. Like said before @ 1.026 the fish hate it so much they're jumping out of the ocean. bla bla bla temperature bla bla bla stuff bla bla bla more stuff. Let it go. The person at the lfs in the first post is a tool.

Again depending on the frequency of your water changes are,.... if your mixing your water changes to 1.026 depending on the volume of your changes, you may need to recalibrate your refractometer just to make sure your new water is @ 1.026 & not getting higher. Because after enough new water @ 1.026 goes into your tank your DT will be at 1.026 Whether you think so or not
