Salinity - What's your mixed reef at?

[ForTheLoveOfCoral21]

Just curious what ever one is running their mixed reefs at

 

[Tuan’s Reef]

1.026 constant.

 

[ForTheLoveOfCoral21]

1.026 constant.

Same, i have heard some people say 1.028 and that seemed a bit high to me, personally but i know its in the safe zone.

 

[1112-425XL]

Portable Refractometer says 1.027
High Precision Hydrometer says 1.0248

 

[Propane]

1.026 and it’s pretty much my only stable parameter lol.

Hanna salinity probe says 1.025. Paranoia made me buy a high precision hydrometer to verify and it said 1.0255.
That'll do!

You are NOT alone in this statement haha

is that the same as the milwaukee one?

Mines 1.027 until skimmer pulls it down to 1.026 then I add salt. Usually about every 12 weeks in summer or about 6 in winter.

I have seen the best results personally at 1.026 and temps at 76-77

 

[Lemons]

1.026 for me aswell, gives 0.002/3 leway either way :)

 

[DJF]

1.025 because there is a .02 margin of error using Milwaukee

Don’t think I’d use that then :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

My eyeballs have a larger margin :)

I keep mine at 1.025 in the event it rises through evaporation- its at 1.026

I don't think so. It's the probe one:
