woah! thats some high salinity. lol where do u live xD


also, i dont know what you did, but im guessing that ur readings are just wrong. usually its best to calibrate the reader rather then just stick the freshly unpackaged reader into the water and measure whatever it reads out at first.

i forgot how one would do that though... sorry bout that i used to be an ocean specialist a few years ago i cant believe i forgot. give it a go at the search engine.
 
not sure where your from nug, but hard limestone water is near impossible to ph down scroll down to unholy water in this section and check out what i went thru . I finally settled for distilled...
