Many people move over to reefs from Fish Only tanks. Some of the habits of fish only tanks are not good for inverts. Primarily, the specific gravity of the tank. Fish only owners often run their tanks at 1.022~1.023 specific gravity. That may be fine for the fish but most inverts will typically not do good at hyposalinity. They will want to be kept at NSW levels. That means a salinity of 35ppt or 1.026 for most swing arm hydrometers and 1.027 for most refractometers.
