I have been running leduc tap water since last winter sometime, I was aerating and salivating in carbon/phosban in an acuaclear for the first while but that got donated to the gf so now its just straight tap. I would not call it failure but probably from how much time I used to work on the road i have a few problems. Increased water changes lately = slightly increased look.
I keep debating the RO/DI upgrade but its a wee bit behind in the spending list right now. Sps are growing slowly and not brown but not coloured yet but I'm still trying to get them figured out. lps are growing and have OK colour. Just curious since we have similar sized tanks but yours it taller. is that aquatic life fixture much brighter than the nova i got off of you? I think some of my sps are to close but have not ruled out other factors yet.

I like the aquaticlife fixture but in all hounesty i dont think its much if any at all brigther. It was almost double the price so i was expecting big things but i was let down buy the Par output. The one plus side i find over the nova extreme is that it has 4x1watt LEDS for nightime viewing and it has a built in digital timer. I have the same growth rates in sps with both fixtures. I did find a bit more color when i changed to KZ bulbs over the aqua science bulbs but i still would use aqua science bulbs in the future.
