I understand the concept of why it's best to use RO/DI, but I'm not at a place where I can afford $150 to buy a whole brand new unit and fwiw, I feel like going to the LFS to buy pre-made water is going to be just as expensive over time.
Can I use tapwater treated with prime and let it sit for a day?
Also I'm confused about when I need to add the salt mixture water vs. topping off with regular water.
If there's salt in the water already, and I do a water change, then add more salt water to it - I've increased the concentration/salinity, right?
So how do I mix proper amounts to avoid just making a complete salt solution?
Sorry if these are dumb questions, I'm brand new to SW and have been researching for a week and everything tells me to just go buy an expensive RO/DI unit
Nothing I've found has addressed the concentration question.
Please help?!?!
