Well, the gramma and clowns will be ok. It's the 3 angelfish. You could only get one for a tank that size if you want to avoid fighting.
They'll kill each other in that small of a tank.
Well, a Spectrapure membrane is currently on sale for $40. I would probably change the prefilters too, TBH. You would want to buy a DI addon unit,...
Well, your RO is running 70% rejection, which is horrible. I don't know why that is, but you absolutely need to get that down to the 1 to 5 range...
