I heard softening makes your membrane more efficient and your DI last longer is the only advantage because it strips out the alk and Ca (hardness).
My town is on well water so its really hard. Was great for Cichlid keeping because It was ready to go out the tap for them.

I'm dosing 4-8oz of phyto and a cupful of pods daily though so those readings may be off/indesciminate.

feeding like that you must have a solid skimmer.
How old is your tank?

so its an interesting theory.i really don't talk much about this but it this was a very similer conversation i had with Jake adams at lunch at RAP NY. he believed that in that fact as well and in fact some of reef builders tanks are supplied with water that is filtered with sediments and carbon blocks/sediment . this was a pretty long conversation we had but ill give the key notes of it.

you need to have a lot 3-6 carbon blocks in a row and mulit sediments
the flow rate needs to be pretty low as you want to give the filters enough time to collect all the organics it can collect.
Starting the tank at a low lighting settings
if you turn up the lights and expect to grow algae untell your reef or live rock has matured enough to process the extra nutrients. for the most part it also really matters where you live because every state county city processes water differently.

That might work, but sounds like a long time to get there. Those are the kind of questions that make me sit in the corner nodding unknowingly.

I've upgraded the whole house. DIY style - anyone can rent those pipe crimpers!

Why's that sound so threatening?

Got into the hobby the autumn before last when I sold my cichlid setup; got all used stuff to start and DIY's all I could. Did a dry start on all the rock; runnig bare bottom but have a ton of rocks and sand in the sump.
I run a skimmer but don't remove anything; it takes over a week to fill the cup. Skimmer is an old CADLights PLS-150 that just fits in the sump next to my DIY filter floss roller. Fuge is on 19 hours a day. total system volume is almost 200 gallons with the frag and nem tanks that are all plumbed in.
I think I go through a 5" x 100yd roll of the filter floss in a Qtr so don't think I'm overly filtering.
Will get more readings tonight or tomorrow night.

Octopuses On MDMA Want to Snuggle Just Like You

In the Netflix documentary My Octopus Teacher, filmmaker Craig Foster befriends an octopus in the Atlantic waters near his home. Over a year, he visits her nearly every day. Their bond, even though octopuses are solitary animals, becomes unquestionable; she touches him with her long...
