I am not saying that using tap water is right....I am just saying I use it myself and have never had any problem :P

My thoughts exactly Mark. It's on like Donkey Kong :lol:

looking good man! By the way, one of the tanks of the month last year used tap water for a long time. Looked great as evidenced by his TOTM acclaim :-) He did eventually switch to using RO/DI but I'm not sure why as his tank did fine with tap water.

Thanks Kien :D

Atleast I know I won't be going to RO/DI as long as I am in Calgary or something makes me do it.

Like always, don't try to repair something if its not broken :P

So got my new lights running. I am running 2 blue+, 1 purple+ and 1 KZ coral light. The color this combination is popping is just too good! I never saw colors like that in my tank :P

Anyway, here are some pics (with my new camera, Canon SX160 IS):

I counted 8 fish in your tank, I know they are not tangs but they still go poo poo and pee pee. How you have no problem with nutrients while using tap water is beyond me Raied. But good on you buddy :mrgreen:

Yah till now I don't have any issue with my tank till now :D (I knew someone's gonna count the fishes haha). Weird stuff :P Like they say, every tank is different :D

That is a stuffed 20 long. Absolutely awesome!
Great tank.

Madreefer 01-13-2013 05:41 PM

Looks good, and all that time you spent researching LEDs.:lol:

If only I could get my colors to pop like that, and I have yet to see anyones LED covered tank look as good as T5s.

I would'nt say tank of the month:biggrin:

That nano contest still on from 2012? I'd say this is a winner!
