    Hey there iv asked this before but I feel I didnt generate enough attention the first time. I'm wanting to get into the hobby but after being burnt the first time I'm having tank issues. Is the fluval Osaka 260 a good SW tank. My LFS has two of them set up for SW and they seem to be doing great... But things I have heard them say raise some red flags for me. For instance the tank does not have a sump bc it comes with some high tech filter and iv heard one of the lFS say that the filter is so amazing that they just use tap water... Does that even sound remotely true? I mean this seems like it would be extremely low maintenance if it's true. But I
    Go in every so often and their reef looks fine... They even had a jellyfish n there the other day.
