what exactly is the specific gravity supposed to be on a reef tank. I am adding salt now and need to know where to stop.

Many will keep reefs at 1.024 - 1.025

In a "reef" tank? :nope:
IMO minimum 1.024
That may help keep ick away, but a reef will not do too well at that low of salinity.

Keeping your sg at that level will do nothing to keep ich away.
My sg is maintained at 1.025
