too much di water please help

[daReefPeep]

I accidently left my DI water on too long in my tank and the salinity 1.20 what should I do? Should I do a water change real fast should I leave it? Thanks.

Id do about a 10% water change with a bit higher salinity in it and slowly bring up your salinity over the next few days to where you want it.

If you can do a wc i would start now but please read boomer's suggestions.

If you are in a time pinch and have the ability, I have raised salinity by putting salt in a fine filter sock in a moderate flow part of sump. Never in the tank. Warning, this is vastly less than ideal but can be done.

I think that I will leave it our evaporation is so high a week it will be back to normal thanks for all your input

Just keep in mind that after a weeks worth of evaporation, if you top off with RO/Di water, you'll end up back with the low SG. You'll need to top off with saltwater. I'm sure you've already thought of this but I figured I'd remind you.
