Hey all you reefers out there. Please vote on what you run the specific gravity of your tank at. Please no fish onlys.
 
I run mine at 1.024 only because I still use a swing arm hydrometer *feels shame*.

Once I get a refractometer(hopefully soon), I plan on going to 1.026

My water used to be at 1.026 but i always noticed tang was stressed when i bought him coral would be fine but after a week or two they would slowly die off and after losing alot of money i decided to ask the lfs what do they keep their salinty at and the guy told me they keep it at 1.023- 1.024 so it tokk about a week but i matched their salinty and my torch coral started to swell back up and a couple of zoa's started to peek back at me but i'm always buying corals so i just match my lfs salinty.
 
about 1.025-1.026 I use NSW and it is a little lower in salinity, so every once in a while I will do a small top off with NSW to get a boost in salinity.
