So just remove some of the salt water in the tank and replace with fresh water until you reach the right salinity. Also make sure your water is at the temperature you want when measuring. What are you using to measure salinity btw?

Im just using a hydrometer untill i get everything stable then ill spend the money to get a better one . and i have been slowly removing water and adding new water but its really frustrating now because the hydrometer is reading extremely different levels almost everytime i test . te water is heated to about 72 degrees and the filter and power head are running . i made the mistake of putting in the sand while i do this so it looks like crap right now

I am assuming you are using a swing arm hydrometer. They are very sensitive to micro bubbles attaching to the arm and giving you different readings. I would also wait until your water clears up as the dust suspended in the water will affect the arm as well. Maybe bring your temp up closer to 78 degrees.
