    So after my screw up a few days ago i put the rest of the salt that i had in the system... only its not enough!! :( my salinity is at ~ 1.021 .22. I cant tell (measured by a refracto.) that should be okay to cycle, correct? It sucks but thats what im working with.

    Ill raise it before adding livestock, dont worry.

    Yeah should be fine for the cycle. Even fish! Just raise it before corals or inverts.

    funny story. i put the LR i had in before in it and my salinity was way low. I saw one of my small stars literally peel over and die... so i thought. Put some more salt in the tank and back to life he came. It was weird. thanks for the input i was so mad i ran out of salt. If i didnt put my fuge online i prolly woulda had enough, but i want full system on. lol
