Saltwater Question

[GoTakeANap]

Hello everyone. I made a new batch of saltwater to do a water change in the next day or to. The salt level was 1.026-1.027 the 2 times I checked it with my refractometer. Was wondering if there was a formula out there that I could use to dilute the salinity down to 1.024-1.025? If not I guess I can just mix fresh ro/di water with the saltwater to get it right.

If your Salt mix is 1/2 cup to 1 gallon for 1.025, then you need to add RODI water to it to bring it back down to the level you want. 1.026 to bring it to 1.025= 1 gallon of RODI , 1.026 to bring it to 1.024 would require 2 gallons............ I'll assume you get the idea from here.
