Question engine coolant

i was checking my fluids under the hood today as i usually do every week. i noticed that since i have had the car, 3 months, the coolant in the reservior tank has dropped by about a quarter. Is this normal?

This is not normal, but if you checked it when the car is warmed up it would show that it is fuller than it would if the car is cold.

What kind of coolant is recommended?

I've had my car for about 1-1/2 months and the coolant level is already on or, if not, a little under the low level.
