I am trying to decide whether to purchase a 175g bowfront reef-ready system or have my 135g standard tank drilled. Money isn't the issue - I just would like to see what others prefer.

    To salt or not to salt?

    How much salt should be added - and what type - and how often? I used Aquarium Salt when I first setup my freshwater community tank. Actually I added about 1 tbsp per 20 gal because I read somewhere that it helps with stress and disease, but I wanted to add the bare minimum. I haven't added...
