    Reef Aquarium Water Parameters by Randy Holmes-Farley - Reefkeeping.com

    This article is the definitive source in my opinion. It has recommended values for all parameters. I am going through parameter by parameter and collecting not only the ideal target, but also detection/measurement techniques, isolation steps if the parameter is out of range and recovery steps to get it back in range.

    Mark, Thanks that looks like a good guide to the overall parameters. I was hoping that there would be someone that would post a personal list of Parameters that differs from the NORM.....But I guess this is it!!!!! ::)
