My Tank Thread
This has been raised on another thread (@Nik Mason) and is a very good question, so come on guys let’s here from everyone.
I’ll start us off by saying I keep mine as follows, or thereabouts!
Salinity 35ppm
Phosphate 0.03ppm or less
Nitrate 5-10ppm
Calcium 430ppm
Alkalinity 8.2dKH
Magnesium 1310-1360ppm
PH 8.2
There are going to be infinite answers on this subject.
For all interested if you haven’t already seen them here are two articles which are very interesting as the parameters are not what you may expect and all the tanks are, well, masterpieces!
