I just purchased a refractometer and was wondering what everyone was running. I ck mine and it was 1.022. I am thinking it should be 1.025.

any where from 1.021 to 1.025 is acceptable. It can rise over time, and the fish might accept a little bit higher SG. Mine right now rose to 1.027 and my fish are fine. it slowly went up in about 3 weeks.

1.024
and half way to 1.025 so I would guess 1.0245 would be the best reflection.
I keep both the nano and the 140 @ all the same levels - so I can move things back and forth with a minimal amount of effort!

If you're using an ATC Refractometer don't even bother looking at the Specific Gravity, it's probably wrong. Use the Salinity side of the scale and shoot for 35ppt.
