I still don't get it, but anyway, does it really make a difference if you do a water change and it's 9% or 10.5%? Not sure how you do water changes, but I have a 20g tank. I fill it with RO/DI and mix in my salt, etc. I then drain 4 5g jugs from my tank and replace it with the fresh mix. I don't know if it's a 12%, 15%, 17.5% or whatever. It doesn't really matter, does it?
Dosing is far from an exact science. If you enter 26g or 27.75g total volume in the
Reef Chemistry Calculator, you won't get a big difference in the amount to dose. You get a general idea and then test, test and test.
IMO, very few things need to be done in exact amounts. Your basic salinity, pH, calcium, alk and mag have pretty wide zones that are acceptable. But, if you run ozone, use co2 (calcium reactor), or dose carbon (vodka, sugar, etc) you better be exact in your dosages/monitoring. They can wipe out a tank in hours.
