Does algae growth on the hydrometer effect the salinity reading? And how much? I have just a hang on the side type.
I have tried to remove the hydrometer and wash the algae off, but now there is a teensy starfish that we found and I don't want it to die. I can't figure out a way to get him out without possibly killing it ( I don't know the species..it is about 3/8in small) But, I think that it can't get out unless it gets lucky and finds the hole it climbed into anyway.
Any ideas on what to do?
