This may sound dumb but I am not new to fish tanks but I am bran new to salt water fish tanks. I am in the process of standing up a 55gal FOWLR tank and have every possible piece of equipment needed. My biggest hang up is making the saltwater and keeping up with the need to add more. With that said, I have 55 gal of RODI water already dripped all it needs is salt. So I figured I'd make the salt and add the entire batch to the tank. Great, now what? In the past I have needed to add at least bi weekly RO water to top of the tank due to evaporation. Now what do I do? In addition if I do a water change how do I then make new saltwater match the required salinity in the tank. Is it a math problem, am seriously over thinking this? Thanks to anyone willing to offer advice and experience to my retarded delma.
