Default Water params for happy corals?
What do you all keep your levels at for your corals, soft, sps and/or lps?

My levels are currently

Temp 76
Salinity 1.024
Ph 8.0
Alk 1.6
Calc 520
Mag 1300
No ammonia, nitrites or nitrates, and no phosphates.

I'd also like to know who uses the kalk drip system as I'm thinking this may be what I need to perfect my water params.

I'd like a couple of those numbers to go up a little but, it's staying consistant and my corals seem happy, but not as happy as I've seen them in other tanks... so thought I'd see what works for you all.

Thanks.
