Hi I just brought a water test kit to make sure my lvls are right and iv been looking on the internet and it's mixed messages so looking for some advice. I currently have two clown fish and some coral tank has been set up for almost a month and is going through the uglies at the moment. Can someone please shed some light on what I should be aiming for. Thanks

Hi- If i were you i would shoot for these type of ranges...
Salinity 1.023 to 1.026
Temp between 76 to 80 degrees
PH 8.1 to 8.3
DKH 7 TO 10 no higher or lower
NO3 under 20ppm,over do water change
CA 420ppm to 450ppm
As long as your tank is cycled,you should only have to check your,, AM and NO2 every 3 months,or if you suspect issues.
Also advise using RODI water,and test with TDS meter... Of course theres more to it such as lighting,flow and trace elements...
Hope this helps ..best of luck.
