werd2738 I am SO sorry for jacking your thread :/
And ur salinity is a bit low in my opinion I keep my tank at 1.024-1.026 but I have corals
Agreed, need more salt and to buy some RODI filters for a unit I picked up yesterday. I saw the RO water from outside the supermarket has led to algae, which was what my whole tank was made with earlier this month
Yea I was useing RO water from the machines outside the supermarket if they are maintenced properly it's ok but they usually are not so large algae outbreak from that water
Yea your stand height is a bit short but no harm in leaving your skimmer where it is. Another option u could do is get a 10 gal tank and find a stand the same height or a bit shorter and have a display fuge and plumb the fuge tank to the main display tank and that will give you some diff fish options also ex: if you'd like sea horses then you would be able to plant the tank with macro and a bit of live rock and have a sea horse tank with a purpose since both the fuge and sea horses and pipe fish need lower flows just an idea
