Overview

The Red Sea Seawater Refractometer is a precision optical instrument used to measure salinity, one of the most fundamental parameters in a marine or reef tank.

Getting salinity right — and keeping it consistent — matters more than almost any other single parameter, and a quality refractometer gives you a far more accurate reading than a hydrometer ever can.

Key features
  • Optical refractometer purpose-built for seawater salinity measurement
  • More accurate and repeatable than swing-arm hydrometers
  • Compact, durable design for regular use at the tank or during water changes
Who it's for

Any reef or marine fish-only keeper who wants accurate, reliable salinity readings — an essential tool regardless of tank size.

Setup & tips
  • Calibrate with RO/DI water (reading zero) before first use, and recheck periodically
  • Clean the prism and lid after every use to avoid dried salt affecting future readings
  • Take readings at a consistent temperature for the most accurate result
  • Recalibrate if the unit is dropped or hasn't been used for a while
