Is it too late?

[David Nguyen]

Hi Everyone,
I'm still a newbie when it comes to saltwater setup. So my tank is about 2 months in and everything has been great so far. I have a 40 gallon AIO tank and when I initially started i didn't fill the tank all the way. As in, I added sand, rocks and water but i stopped adding water once i thought it was full but now to find out that all my chambers in the back is like 1/4 full. Just enough where the return pump gets water.
My question is...is it too late to fill it up? Will that throw off the salinity or anything if I fill it fully up on the next water change? Would love to add more water if possible.

My guess that to fill it up all the way it will need 3 to 5 more gallons of water.

No problem at all. Just fill with saltwater mixed to same levels as your tank water.

Hi,
Thank you! Do you confirm with the member to just add more saltwater?

Yes,
As long as the new saltwater matches your display's water parameters
