What is the best level for salinity?

Mine is at 1.024 with refractometer (just calibrated to 35ppm) and 33.5 currently with Apex Salinity Probe.

For fish only anywhere from 1.023 to 1.026 is fine, for corals you want to keep it closer to 1.025 to 1.026 or 35ppm
 
1.024 is fine, I keep mine at 1.025.
 
ok, I may bump mine up a hair to 1.025 to be in the safe zone for fish only and corals down the road.
