18 ppt is 1.013 and 26 is 1.0199 (at 60degrees remember temperature affects specific gravity so the reading is different at reef temperatures. of 78-83 degrees) at 80gdegrees a reading of 1.019 is actually 1.0214. did this help or make it more confusing?
 
it helped alot is there a conversion chart somewhere that shows the difference at different temps? i run my tank at 78 degrees and right now i have my SG set at 1.021 with hydro. also the reason why i asked this is i moved my cleaner from one tank at 1.025 and 76 degrees to its current location and it hasnt reburried its self or had its tube stuck out since and that was over week ago. i did drip acclimation for over two hours.
