hey guys
ok so i'm looking into maybe getting a pretty big aquarium (10ft x 2.5ft x 2.5ft) but i'm also exploring about how id use r.o water on it, its probably going to be a monster tank but because the nitrates in my tape water are around 20-30ish ppm amd its generally very hard water, that's gonna be hard to keep them nitrates down with some meat eating fish.... i know that the only way is to buy my on system but how do i store that amount of water? should i buy a high flow (400gpd) system and fill the tank (slowly) during the day adding the mineral and trace elements as it fills?
i'm also interested in what nitrates some of you guys are getting out your tap water?
