    I'm gonna speak on his behalf and although I could be wrong,I believe he meant to say he added blue life clear fx pro,not coral rx pro.

    your running RO/DI....right?.. need to make sure the carbon and micron filters are good(as well as the DI / Membrane of course) I say the other two because sometimes we tend to think they are fine?...I let mine go too long once, with serious negative results.:p
    TDS readings? pre and post membrane and DI.?

    prefilters are pretty new, prob a month old, DI is getting close to being maxed out, but, after the RO I think I'm at 7-10, and after DI just started getting a trace, 1-2, so should prob change it.

    Well,since you beat me at trying the FX Pro,give us some feedback man!How are you running it?Anything noticeably different/better?Any param changes?I guess it can really help stabilize your ph as well as conditioning your water.

    well, gonna be hard since I started it during a crash, BUT, i put that in and did a 10% WC and now everything is perked back up in 48 hours. Acans, zoa's, palys, shrooms, toadstool, all were starting to shrivel/melt, clams, unhappy. NOW everything poofed back up, monti is coloring back up and showing polyps again. Not bad for just a few days and 10% WC.

    I'll wait abit for params but phates and trates are down, I'll post more in a bit
