Unless I've missed something obvious, most people mix their new water a little heavier and let the water changes move it up.
I was thinking that using salt water in the ATO (with a limited amount so no risk of overdoing it) would be more gradual and easier on the fish and inverts.
Any negatives to doing it that way? And is there a formula/rule of thumb for how "strong" to mix the topoff water for, say, 2g going into a 100g system, maybe to arrive at the level of salinity needed to raise the tank each .001?
