Hey guys
so ive had a brackish tank for about 2 months now and i was wondeering would it be faster to just slowly add more salt every week or just scrap it and put full marine water in
the salinity of my tank atm is 1.010 so it would take about 3 weeks to get it to 1.20 ish
now the question i have is when should i start putting in live rock ? at what salinity ?
and my cycle wont reset once its full marine if i slowly add salt

I would slowly add salt sense (if you want to keep the current stuff) you will need to rasie it anyway. Adding rock might cause a mini cycle so just watch your parameters. The rock doesn't have a sg it needs to be at but if their is stuff on it the closer to really saltwater the better.
