Here in the U.S. that equals about 8 gallons. It's (4) tablespoons per 1 gallon of freshwater to make 1 gallon of brackish water with a salinity around 1.010 or so. So for (8) gallons it's 2 cups or 16ozs. Since you have a big tank you can always use a salinity meter. This one runs about $8 US.

If you have a tank with no shrimp or snails etc you can just keep adding salt and measuring the salinity as you go.
