Where do you keep your mixed reef Salinity?

I tried searching first, but after a few minutes didn't find a good thread.

So I usually stay at around 1.025. My currently setup is in hypo apparantly since I tested it at 1.030, I plan to dilute tomorrow.

My brother-in-law said he thinks 1.021 is ideal.

What's the consensus? Mixed reef, SPS, LPS, Softies.

1.026 in my reef and 1.024 in fowlr. 1.024 ive heard is lowest u should go with coral and with fish only some keep at 1.018

1.025 for my reef.

1.025 so that when I have water evaporate, it's at 1.026.

Mine is at 1.025.

Also, Hypo is under that. Hyper is above.

Yea sorry I mixed up the term, I am hyper at 1.030. I plan to bring it back to 1.025. I'd never heard of going as low as 1.021 like my brother-in-law said for mixed reef and I knew I stayed about middle ground 1.025.

Thanks for clearing up my momentary lapse of memory.

Make sure your refractometer is calibrated properly too

When you are treating for ich, you should go all the way down to 1.09...but it's a tricky slope that leaves very little to mess up with.
