>>326747 Yes 0 is ideal, and what mine and my LFS put out (700g a day of it if need be), but 10, 20, 30 is still insignificant. Breath on a sample of your RODI with a TDS meter and watch it climb. Every RODI meter I've used under $150 also has +/- of like 8 or 10ppm. 99% of users will experince no difference between 0ppm and 30ppm. Fact.
Current better than Coralife! If this was on Reef-Central they would call you a troll lol. How about Jebo, feels good man. Having delt with hundreds of Coralifes and dozens of Current orbit shit boxes ESU is the way to go. Currents are disposable, and they like it that way. ESU makes parts available and does a better job of backing their shit up. We buy back and resell coralifes all the time, currents you can not do anything with, cheap cheap. Fact.
Why not T5? The fixtures are more expensive and they do not come with bulbs, which adds at least $100 or more. We where trying to do quality but on the cheap. On a 40g, t5 are also moot, the PC will grow anything a noob would want. Metal halides, a 40g would take 2 150/175/250, shit ton of money and again, growing coral and clams a noob is not gonna grow, and add heat he is not gonna want to deal with on his first reef.
Name a coral in a 40g or 75g that metal halides will grow but PC won't. Acropora, crocea clam, maxima clam is debatable, carpet anemones (cuase those are sooo easy even with MH), done. And most acropora will grow, just not be nuclear, but he is not gonna skim/dose that tank enough to keep them nuclear anyway so it is moot.
