AC did have a recent sale for a club I'm involved with. I'll be picking one up shortly as the hydrometers are just so unreliable. On the same note, is anyone using a pH meter? I have one but haven't used it for awhile.

I used to use mine with my freshwater tanks but need to buy some calibration solution to calibrate it for use on the marine tanks.

If you're still looking for a refractometer try Aquaria Canada. Mine arrived a few days ago for I believe $45 or so.

Just use distilled water and sett refractometer to 0.

Thanks for the tip on calibrating my refractometer, but I was actually referring to my pH meter. Do you buy your distilled water from a pharmacy, i.e. Shoppers Drug Mart, etc?
