I did a water change today and thought I'd do a salt check before and
after. Before the change I had a salt level of .13%, after I had .11%. Bascially doing a little more than a 15% water change out. (13 - 11 = 2, 2 divided by 13 equals .154 or 15.4%) Surprised me. Here I though I was doing between 20-25%. So for those of us who don't have perfectly straight walled, flat bottom ponds who could calculate their water change % in feet (or inches) i.e., 4 ft of pond, drain down 1' equals a 25% change out. Here is another way to use your salt test measurements. ;o) ~ jan (Do you know where your water quality is?) |
