Let me say, don't be like me and forget things. Turns out after refilling my ATO RODI water bucket I forgot to plug the ATO back. And well I've noticed my BTA unhappy. Well I didn't test salinity because I thought it was just perfect. No reason. it shouldn't be, right? Well I noticed the water level dropping exposing parts of the skimmer that shouldn't be exposed. It's not too bad. but I'm sure it made the new unhappy.

At least your return pump didn't run dry...

ot down that far. It just went about 1/3 an inch below the norm but I checked salinity before fixing it and sure enough salinity was at 1.28
 
I've had the opposite happen where during a water change my ato keeps running and delutes the salinity.
