hello all...
I new here so this is my question.... I have a 75g salt tank that has been setup over a yr+ now.. it a fish only tank for now because i didnt have any luck keeping inverable or oral.. everytime i change the water I just add straight tap water into the tank when it get low.... after adding straight tap water i measure the saltinity (salt level) the (salt contain) doesnt change at all..... I been doing that for the last past year and fish never died off... so my question is why? i have ask people at the LFS and they say to take out at least 10% of water in the tank... mix and measure saltiny (salt content) of new water then add to tank.... IS this really necessary???

30 lb live rock
1 yellow tang
404 fuval
802 power head
200w heater
80w flouresen lighting
