Reef Salinity
 
Hello everybody,

Looking for some opinions on what would be an ideal salinity level for a reef tank with mainly softies??

I was thinking 1.026 but have been told that's rather high.

thoughts?, experiences, suggestions??

1.024-1.026 should be perfect.

I keep mine at 1.026.

1.026 for any reef...

1.026 for me as well.

1.026 here as well. The only reason to drop it is to save salt I'm guessing.

102.6 is the standard and softies or Lps will not be harmed, natural salt water is 102.8-9 so this is as close and safe to the ocean that we can get. 102.4 is fine aswell but I would keep in that range.
