My main is 480 L, currently 1.023 25°, which I want to stock FOWLR.

I've setup a 250L QT and wondered what would be right SG and temp. I'm thinking that slightly less saline would be easier on the fish, maybe 1.019-1.020 and 25°. I'll be quarantining fish and inverts.

Any suggestions would be welcome
 
Not sure about the inverts, it probably depends on what they can take, as far as SG and temp.
I looke at a few inverts and this is about where they should be:
sg 1.023-1.025

I would think QTing them at different times would work out a lot better, since fish tend to be better equipped at lowering of SG. I'm sure some one with more experience will pop in and be able to help.
