Christian Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I'm just wondering what y'all salt levels are at because I know that different tanks have different levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshman1204 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I have always kept mine at 1.025 .... no real reason other than thats where my tank was at when I bought a refractometer and I have just kept it there every since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddybluewater Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Natural sea water is 1.026, that is where I keep mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjohn Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Mine is currently 1.023. I like it more at 1.025 - 1.026. I used LFS saltwater for my last water change instead of making my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaJMasta Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Natural sea water is 1.026, that is where I keep mine. I've heard people claim everything from 1.022 to 1.030 - and it probably does vary quite a bit given different temperatures, depths, and proximity to freshwater locations. I run 1.024 - I hear inverts tend to like it a little saltier, so I moved it up from 1.023.... plus higher SG means more dissolved magnesium and calcium and such if you're mixing it from a commercial salt.
