![]() Chloramines for one. Be sure to treat the water with prime or amquell.
I think it depends on a few things. Using ro/di water just eliminates a few more variables of what is going into your tank. For starting out it "may" be ok. If you start having algae issues that refuse to go away you will start to wonder what really is in that 10-100+ ppm disolved solids in the water. |

![]() Hey fellow reefers,
I recently called EPCOR and got a chance to talk to one of the lab technicians who actually runs the water testing for Edmonton and he said that Edmonton tap water is treated with Chlorine and Chloramines! Both are found in our water. Better to use a Chloramine specific RO/DI unit to get pure RO water! No junk = less problems to solve. IMHO Cheers! |
