That is a decent unit. Way better than any hyrdrometer. You will love how easy it is to drip one drop, look through the lens, and know what your salinity is.

I've got that unit. It is so much faster than watching the bouncing needle and way more accurate.

I'm sure my tank is staying at the same level. I was never sure before.
