Default Any before and after RO water pics?

Just as the title says, is there anyone out there that has some before and after RO water pictures. I just had an Ro unit installed and i was going to post some before and after pics at 1,2,3 month intervals. I dont know if i will even notice anything but i am hoping it might help with sps color a bit. Tap water has worked great for me but i was curious to see if RO would do even better.

Someone asked this same question last year. No one posted any pictures. Better luck this time. http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/sho...6&highlight=ro

When I saw his tank, I was convinced that R/O was the way to go!

Woulda been alot nicer tank had you put the skeleton with the treasure chest that blows bubbles in the center of it. HAHA that must bring alot of memories to everyone. Is'nt that what most of our tanks looked liked when we started out? Thats the same clown is'nt it?

Did ro water kill your eel? J/k. I was just hoping to hear some changes people have noticed in the past. I dont have water quality issue now so i doubt my results are going to be anything spectacular but i will keep people posted and take a few pics along the way.

I probably do have some pictures somewhere on my hard drive from 2005 when I switched from tap to RO/DI water. However, back then I was upgrading or changing something about the tank every other week and I only had one or two sps. I just remembered that someone had asked this question last year and that no one had any pictures to share then.

Yes its the same clown and the wolf-eel-blenny morphed into a snowflake moray.
