So if You buy a fish from shop and say the lfs has a low sw number and yours are normal then what would tou do
This is another reason you have a quarantine tank. You can dilute the SG down, using ro/DI water, and use the quarantine tank right away. What you can't do is add salt to increase SG, since that takes time to dissolve.
In the case of the OP, the change in SG went from what you'd expect in an LFS, about 1.020 - 1.025, to the op's quarantine tank at 1.009. This is a massive drop, and a major problem.
Now if you don't have a quarantine tank, and then you should be taking the water the fish was shipped in and adjusting it to the SG of your tank. Typically this will only be a small amount, say from 1.022 to 1.025 or so. That change most fish will handle with out too much trouble.
One other point about acclimating livestock. Never add any water the fish was shipped in to your system. Consider it contaminated and discard it. This means you will need at least some premixed SW to make up the water used from the display tank for acclimation process.
