okay, I am using a strip test, it shows nitrates is high at about 80, it says alkalinity is ideal at 300 and it shows the ph level also fine. I was going by a floating hyrdrometer but it just shows a green "safe level" and it was a little above the safe level. Am I confused on which is the salt level? Can I add some nitrate decreaser?
