Hi Guys,
I am in the middle of a hyposalinity treatment for Ich, and just received my new Refratcometer today, it is WAY DIFFERENT from the cheap plastic float needle, my SG has been almost .004 more than I thought all along. I calibrated with RO water being I have nothing else to calibrate with, would RO water be 0.0? , or am I not calibrated like I think?
PS: I will order some salt water calibration fluid soon as I can, as I know it is best for SG in the 1.023 range.
thanks,
