Thanks for the advice. I will go looking for some RO water this weekend. Hopefully that does the trick. I did try measuring the city water for nitrate but it read to be 0. I'm also going to try cutting back on the feeding too.

I went to the LFS last weekend and I am saddened that my tank looks like a septic tank compared to their system. I realize that they have huge systems and very expensive filters and people that work on it 40 hours a week but I think my tank should look better. I don't know if it is a algae...

It probably did get cold. I didn't know till I did a search on this forum that the skimmer would help with the smell. That was when I brought it inside. Cool, thanks.

I am going to replace my generic florescent and plastic hood with a PC to allow my LR to grow better. Also, in the future I may add coral. I was looking at a 30” PowerCompact/Moon-Lite Hood from CustomSeaLife. Is this a good selection? Do I need a glass cover also to replace the plastic hood...
