I've just recently gotten into saltwater reef tanks. It's been a rough battle in the begin however I've gotten a better handle on things. The one question that no one has explained to me is what my water parameters should be at and what are the danger levels that I want to stay away from.
I currently have a 30 rimless jbj with a hydra 52; 12 inches off the water. I have two hydro evolution 600 power heads and a tunze 3155 ato. No skimmer. Planning on upgrading soon.
Live stock:
Scarlett hermit crabs
blue leg hermit crab
purple firefish
Two black Molly's
Coral
Green frogspawn
Fire and ice polyps
Super sayian polyps
Eagle eye polyps
Radio active dragons eye polyps
A few unknown polyps
I just finished a water test and would like someone's opinion as well as what my levels should be at and what is dangerous.
Red sea test kits
Temp - 79°F
Sg - 1.024
Ph - 8.4
Alk - 7.0
Nh3 - 0.2 ppm
No2 - 0 ppm
No3 - 10 ppm
Ca - 370 ppm
Mg - 1240
