Refractometer, Dual-Range Scale Device To Measure Salinity And Specific Gravity Of Saltwater Aquarium And Reef Tank, Provides Accurate Reading, No Batteries Required, 1 Set Per Piece

Mimic So Your Fish Can Make It Stress greatly contributes to the health condition of your fish. One of the factors that can cause a feeling of restlessness and tension to your aquarium is a change in their environment as they are in a home away from home. In the case of saltwater tank fish the water’s salinity level needs to mimic their native home. If the concentration of salt in the aquarium water is not adequate or constant your fish might fail to thrive. Refractometer by JOR is a helpful dual-range scale device that can assist in maintaining salinity and the specific gravity of your saltwater aquarium or reef tank. Here’s an easy step-by-step guide on how to use this precision instrument: Place a few drops of the sample liquid on the angled prism. On the angled prism put 2-3 drops of the sample liquid. Use the mini screwdriver to calibrate and check through the eyepiece if the blue line is on zero. Close the clear plate then look through the eyepiece again while holding it under a direct light source. Keep away from looking directly at the light as it may have adverse effects on your eyes. Check the salinity level where you can see the point where the contrast line crosses the scale. Maintain a healthy level between 1.020 and 1.028 S.G (specific gravity) or 35 PPT (part per thousand). After using wipe with cloth then keep the device in the strong plastic case. No Job is Difficult with the Right Attitude and Proper Tools Maintaining a saltwater tank is easier when you have proper discipline and education to check the basic parameters to make your fish flourish regularly. It is best to also equip yourself with the correct tools that can provide instant and precise measurements. By doing so you can give excellent care and enjoy the rewards of having a healthy fish tank.
