Testing Salt level and adding salt after SLAM

[Geojaneo]

SLAM is completed! Once I drift down to FC of 10 is that the appropriate time to test salt with the K-1766 and turn on SWG and add salt?

Second question - water temp around 58 brrr degrees - does temp affect the reading?

Thanks!

Salt can be tested / added whenever, proving it was mixed for at least a day when opening.

We never want anyone doing too much at once, but it's a great way to pass some time at the boring tail end of slam when your mostly sitting around waiting.

Not for Taylor.

It may make the cell readings a little wonkier than they already were.

CYA needs the sample to warm up to room temp. The rest of the Taylor tests don't care.

That’s eye opening about CYA temp! As usual - many thanks “Guru” NewDude!

Actually it's more of a squint. With that little bugger googley eye laughing the whole time. I'll get him one day if it's the last thing I do !!!
