    thanks will be adding some hard corals soon had some in the past but they died off, now all pollyps and finger leather is doing great and have been fragging ricordia with success so soon im thinking of getting a brain or something.

    well unfortunately the only downfall of my tank right now is i don't have a rodi unit so phosphates are high so brown algae always is a battle will get a unit soon as i can afford one have had tank up and running a couple years now, just never have the money lol. But my nitrates are 0 due to diy coil denitrator and nitrites of course are zero. just tap water for now which has its downfalls of course.

    Well, you can always buy RO/DI water from your LFS! My LFS sells it for $0.50 a gallon, which isn't bad at all :)
