I am begining to move towards a reef tank. (I have a few damsels and a hawkfish now). I have been cleaning up the water, I added a protein skimmer, then added a couple snails to see if they could help with alge.
Snails lasted just a few days. Despite repeated water changes I could not get the nitrates to drop. I had my well tested (I live in farm land), and it came back kinda hot. High in Nitrates, sulfate, ect. I was considering a Culigan RO water system, for our drinking water and the fish tank. Do you think that type of filteration should be good enough for reef water?
Thanks,
