SRC Member ianmphua Posted July 21, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hi, does anyone know if there is a maximum tds reading for FOWLR tanks which make it safe for the fish and reduce algae growth? I’m not planning on keeping coral. I’m hoping to be able to get away with using singapore’s good tap water with dechlorinator and not purchasing and rodi unit. Thanks!

SRC Member Indeco Posted July 21, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted July 21, 2020 Is better to use RODI water as our tap water is not very gd even for fish only tank.I tried that b4 not quite ok.U can just get the RO unit + booster pump from taobao. The price is very reasonable. Using RO itself I can get 4 TDS without DI, for your case is very gd liao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Evolutionz Posted July 21, 2020 SRC Member Share Posted July 21, 2020 Singapore's tap water are relatively clean.. i used to use tapwater for LPS/softies only tank and had no algae issue.. you can always run a refugium to counter any nutrients issue, and they produces lots of pods/micro faunas that will benefit your fishes too.
