MEASURING CYLINDER for HYDROMETER
Features:
For determining the specific gravity with a hydrometer in saltwater aquaria
Measuring and reading the specific gravity on the scale of the hydrometer will be easy with the new Tropic Marin® MEASURING CYLINDER. The high-quality plastic measuring cylinder is transparent, has a stable base and a spout. With a height of 36 cm (14 inches), it is ideally suited to determine the specific gravity using the Tropic Marin® HIGH PRECISION HYDROMETER. It is no longer necessary to switch off the flow pump for a measurement in the aquarium; just take the monitoring of the specific gravity outside of the tank. It is really simple!
The Tropic Marin® MEASURING CYLINDER is available as single item and as set together with the Tropic Marin® HIGH PRECISION HYDROMETER.

How to use:
NOTE: The specific gravity is temperature dependent. With increasing temperature the specific gravity decreases. Therefore, the measured water temperature should be 25 °C / 77 °F to obtain a correct result.
•
Fill the measuring cylinder with maximum 400 ml saltwater (water temperature = 25 ° C/77 °F).
•
The hydrometer should be dry and clean.
•
Gently place the hydrometer into the water until it floats freely.
•
Now read the specific gravity on the blue part of the scale of the hydrometer at the level of the water surface – NOT at the level of the meniscus, which is creeping higher at the edges!
