I use marine salt for the mollies, but for this test, I just used my iodized table salt. I looked the conversion up on http://www.ez-calculators.com/measurement-conversion-calculator.htm). That was off the charts on my hydrometer – over 1.032. I’ll try to take the hydrometer over to the LFS and have them check it.
