I have been practicing that formula, or close to it, mine is 70% RO and 20% tap, for over 20 years. It has worked for me! Sal From: owner-apisto@v2.listbox.com [mailto:owner-apisto@v2.listbox.com] On Behalf Of Doug Mainor Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 12:08 PM To: apisto@v2.listbox.com Subject: Re: Digest 1.31 for apisto I have a couple of questions. More than a few people have discussed using Pure RO for their tanks. Isn't this a bad idea? Aren't some level of minerals required? Maybe 80% ro, 20% conditioned tap a better mixture? Just curious. Just putting together my first RO unit and when I use it I want to make sure I do it right. The other is not a question, rather a recommendation. For fish supplies such as bags I go to http://www.4fishstuff.com/ Or rather I run down to their store, which for me is local. I don't know what they charge for shipping, but I love their prices. Check out that catalog. The Association store is run by the Florida Tropical Fish Farmers and the prices are pretty darn good. Doug __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
