What should my water priamaters be at in my breeding tanks?

 

[jeff@zina.com]

Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - Less than 10

Normally, none of the rest matter. pH that's stable and around 8.0 - 8.3 is fine. Salinity that's stable and from 1.18 - 1.26 is fine. You may want lower salinity depending on species or stage of development. Mag/Alk/Calc/Phosphate/etc. don't make a difference for fish.
