Thanks for the replies

Actually I am having a very hard time getting the salinity around 1.025. I started doing some experiment few hours ago to see how the 1/2cup per gallon rule works and it showed around 1.020. With 1cup in 1.5gallon, the salinity goes to somewhere between 1.024 to 1.025. So I guess I will be following that rule. What do you people think? Or is there any better way to get the salinity to this level?

Currently I don't have anything in my tank other than 2 aquaclear 20 filters running (one with active carbon and the other one with nothing since I will be putting some live rocks in it for biological filtration), substrate and water with SG between 1.023 to 1.024. My liverock is currently on its way to my home and hopefully I will be getting it in this week and will start cycling the tank once it gets here. I am currently maintaining my tank at 78F.

I am actually thinking of putting these in my 20long:
1. A clown
2. A yellow goby
3. A firefish
4. A cardinal
5. Feather duster worm
6. Cleaning crews

Will the above species be happy with my current water condition?

I am a newby to saltwater and hence so many words because of my excitement. Sorry for that
