Fresh or salt water?

 

[reefreak29]

i was going by fresh , dont know what salt water is

 

[catawaba]

8.56lbs/gallon for 'typical' ocean saltwater
8.33lbs/gallon freshwater is ultimately based on temperature. It can range from 8.31 to 8.37.
Use the specific gravity to calculate.

At what temperature? :hilarious
Also this could depend on what location you are at on earth. :hilarious
