Water changes

I have been fighting for awhile now trying to get my salinity up to where I want it. For months It has been down around 1.019. I have been trying to get it up to 1.022 and its finally there. Its a 29gal tank and I do a 2 gallon change every week. I have been making really high salinity batches to raise my tanks salinity. So from know on do I just make sure all my water changes are 1.022 to maintain it there?

During my water changes I match my salinity (I keep my tanks 1.026) but through your top offs you want to stick with just RO water.

The easy way is to remove a specific amount of tank water and replace it with a equal amount of prepared salt water that matchs the salinity/temp/PH of your display. Why did it take so long to raise your salinity? I've raised or lowered salinity as needed via water changes several times and it seldom takes more than a few weeks to get the level I want.
