RO membranes in Calgary?Starting to panic:(
Okay we'll i am starting to panic a tad. My sps are gonna start all dieing if i don't figure out what to do..I need a ro membrane asap. And i have ordered one but i am thinking its not going to make it in time and i am gonna lose it all.Does anyone know of a store in Calgary that sells them? We were in Edmonton yesterday and no one carries one. I need a filmtec or the likes.DI i am thinking i can find but its the membrane that is the challenge.
I will make the trip up if i have a clue if they are in a store somewhere. I tried homedepot last night in hopes just maybe but nope no luck. Any suggestions

You could probably get one shipped overnight from one of the BC stores

In an emergency you could also go to a water store and buy 5 gallons for a water change while you are waiting for your membrane to show up.

I'm going to look into overnighting it today.
And i could do the water change with store water but i think on a 180 gallon tank that has god knows what leeching into it that it will take way to much bottled water.  I just thought if a store has one there then it would be easier for me to drive up this afternoon and just grab one from there. I don\t know why the membrane is shot anyways although the water where i am is brutal so that really explains it...

All my params are perfect. Dkh-7,Calcium-420,mag 1300,nitrates 10.
Everything has been kept like this since i can remember. But now in the last couple days some of the sps are losing the flesh from the tips down. And it is getting proggressivly worse. I just attributed it all to the ro as nothing else has changed.No chemicals in the air nothing has litterally changed. And these are large established colonys that are going.

RO Membranes
I bought mine at a store called Alberta Fresh Springs Water Co. Ltd. Unit F3, 8330 McLeods Tr. S.E. Ph: 403-278-0003
It is a small strip mall on the corner of McLeod Trail and Heritage Drive. It as a London Drugs in it. It is half way up the hill on the south side if you are heading east on Heritage drive. Mine is a 50 GPD membrane and it cost me $60. They had lots to choose from. I brought mine along to match it up. Good Luck.

Your problem doesn't sound like it stems at all from TDS. Why don't you tell us more about what your seeing, or post some photos, and maybe we can help you fix it.

10 nitrates would that do harm to the corals?
