Hi,
New to the board, and so glad to find it! I just set up my 90 gallon tank last Thursday, with help from Thousand Island Aquarium in Brooklyn (who rock!).
My question is about the quality of the Manhattan tap water. I bought an RO/DI unit, but haven't set it up yet because it seems very involved. We'll get it set up eventually, but right now our kitchen water has a Culligan filtration system on it...is this good enough to make water for changes? We used it for the inital tank water, and I've been using it for top offs.
Right now, I have 2 clowns and 2 cleaner shrimp. Haven't seen any algae, and my ammonia and nitrites are at (or close to) 0.
Thanks in advance,
Jodi
