I believe most will say the cost of such systems and I've read they waste water so it wouldn't benefit me. My family runs water all day

Lol, makes sense, I’m bringing my simple freshwater mindset to the marine side. My reef is probably one of the most simple around
I’ve never used either system, but I’d imagine they do wast water.I believe most will say the cost of such systems and I've read they waste water so it wouldn't benefit me. My family runs water all day
A large number of apisto keepers, at least that I know of, tend to use RO/DI for their fish; actually a bit surprised that not many keepers on here apparently use it, as it's a fairly convenient and moderately expensive means of getting decent water, especially for fish from blackwater habitats and whatnot. Haven't invested in one yet, but it seems very much worth it if one lives in an area with heavily mineralised tap water and wishes to keep fish that require low TDS. My LFS sells RO/DI water in mass quantities, and surprisingly enough, people buy the stuff pretty regularly.
That makes sense, especially considering it seems that reefs require much smaller and less frequent WCs than fresh. I just had to cut way back on my reef maintenance, I was was reading zeros across the board lol
Off topic but do you know what type of coral this is? I forgot to get the name when i got it lol
Hard to tell from the photos but looks like an LPS called green Cyphestraea. But it could be a favites favia or acan, all can look very similar (to me) . Someone who keeps none soft corals should be able to advise better.
