salt level???

[fishfish83]

please can anyone tell me what is the salt level for reef tank thank you!!!!

 

[nm reef]

....for me 35ppt
a decent normal range is 1.021-1.025......stability is very important.:thinking:

Agreed. Of course, NM reef's word is pretty much law here, he's great haha. I keep mine at about a specific gravity of 1.022--like NM reef said, stability is verrry important!

Hiya,
Yeap, NM is the word.
1.022 is good for fish only, 1.025 is good for reef tanks.

35ppt or 36ppt, 1.025-1.026
You should invest in a refractometer,pay attention to the salinity, the specific gravity is not as important as is the salinity.
Be aware that temp can play a role in this as well.

...but you're very open to sharing your experiences and expertise with other reefers, and you're extremely helpful and patient with even the most basic questions.
One of the most helpful people I've seen on any forum ever.
