How to safely raise salinity for clownfish?
I've had my clownfish in hyposalinity for about six weeks now, and I want to start raising it slowly. I've messed up with improper mixing procedure in the past, causing him some irritation, so how should I approach raising salinity? Also, in your opinion, is 3 months fallow for a 32 gal aquarium after ich overkill? Thank you.

A good, safe, slow way is to top off with saltwater.
3 months fallow is a little overkill, by a couple weeks, but fine.

There is a very handy and accurate resulting salinity calculator on hamzasreef.com
