Curious about how people with different reef tanks maintain their salinity levels? I'd also like to know about the livestock (fish, corals, and invertebrates).

1.024 to 1.026 Creeps up once in a while due to heavy 2 part dosing.

Mixed reef, SPS dominate. 12 fish mostly wrasses, many inverts including 2 urchins, and 3 fighting conch, many snails, pistol shrimp, skunk cleaner shrimp, crabs, etc.

I try to keep my tanks at 1.026 but if it goes up to 1.027 or down to 1.025 I don’t worry about it.
I have a mixed reef that’s a little more towards sps then any other type. My other tank is a newly setup fowlr that I may eventually start adding corals to.
