fill up the tank with salt level around 1.021~ 1.025 to the level (when if power failure will not overflow your sump tank)

on every equipment for 10 min, put a mark (blue tag/masking tape/use whiteboard marker mark your tank/any tape)

after 1 day see how much it drop and add fresh water to that mark..

for me...

around 10 litres ++ for 5 feet tank without chiller + fan (running UV)

No chiller for a 5ft? What equipments do you have?

Why do we use "My 2 cents worth" when 1 cents are not legal tender in Singapore anymore? Shouldn't it be 5 cents worth?
