Reef Chemistry. YOUR Parameters

[allof fish]

Hey guys I want to see what everyone keeps their parameters at and if you’ve found success and different ones and why. We all know stability is key in reefing but what are some reasons why parameter's do better in some tanks than others. I know there’s some out there that have success at 10 dkh and some at 7. Why may you keep your parameters that way and why have you found more success at those numbers than others. Happy reefing!

. We all know stability is key in reefing

I am not so sure that there is definitive evidence to that effect with regard to major ions, temperature or anything else, honestly.

It doesn’t negate your question about where people keep their parameters, but it is something to think about.

I do not measure calcium or magnesium so I did not vote on those.

While I applaud the idea to learn, after seeing thousands of posts on folks preferences, I not convinced we can learn anything more than what most people do, as opposed what is best with vastly different organisms and goals for keeping them. :)

Alk is B, last time I checked calcium a few months ago it was A, and I haven't checked magnesium in I don't know how long. A year maybe?
