i am using instant ocean.

my bio load is small. some zoa's a couple of cardinals, one blenny, one goby, one sea hare slug, and a host of CUC

i have seen a cup or more a day in my collection cup.

my salinity was sitting at 1.026 for the longest time then recently dropped to 1.023 (i know it is still in a decent range but dont want it to drop off much more)

I will keep an eye on it and may be pull back on the skimmer.

I have been topping with RO and seems to be topping up a lot lately (i assumed it was the dry winter weather)

All very good things things for me to check. thanks for the advice
