Just Marine Salt, thats all. Make sure its actual marine salt for salt water tanks. Aquarium Salt that comes in the milk container is not marine salt, and won't make your tank brackish. You guessed it, if your salinity is to high, just do a water change and then test with you're hydrometer to see where you're level is. Hydrometer's are cheap too, a couple dollars generally. The one I have looks like a tall glass tube with a temperature looking thermoter thing on top. If floats in the water, and wherever it levels off to along the gauge thing is what your salinity is.
