salt level

[jennabee]

Hi everyone
what should be my ideal salt level be for a 20 gal. tank that will be for corals and a few fish? and do I want any crabs or snails in this tank?

probably want some kinda clean up screw with snail or crabs, but make sure they are all reef safe. salinity 1.025 to 1.026 should work.

I would add the snails (or crabs) gradually, instead of just doing the 1-per-gallon thing and end up starving some.
