    if you wanted to add actinics you could get that hood built that you wanted and put the mh and t5 in there

    Once you get that RO unit running then you'll need an auto topoff so you won't get tired of manually filling the tank. Keeps your water quality more stable to boot.

    A couple of thoughts. I run Helios 20Ks on my tank. I have actinics (VHO), but I don't run them when the MH are on - they color THAT nicely! There are a bunch of other folks here that also do the same.

    We got them from marinemadness.com, in a group buy for $39 each. I seriously doubt you will get near that price, but I believe they are available in an HQI (DE) bulb.

    An RO/DI unit with a top off is what you will need...

    Went by RCA yesterday and had missT order my reeflux 12k. it was a good price and I should have it on thursday. Hopefully this will wake up my one coral

    She was also saying that I could have a hood made for relatively cheap . This way I could mount the 12k and a couple of actinics in there easily. So, that may be my next purchase.

    Tony got me turned on to some of that black diamond carbon. The water looks awesome now.

    Gettin there.

    I would assume an ro unit with auto topoff is going to be relatively large and cumbersome and may not be feasible with my counter hog of a setup. To do that I would need a stand. Then there would be a plumbing issue on top of that im sure. Living in an apartment, my plumbing options are limited to say the least.
