@Alejandro_1403 when I first started reefing I was using the ro buddy without the booster pump. I'm in San Jose so my tap water tds is horrible (450+ tds). That system never really worked great for me. If you are local-ish and become a supporting member I have a BRS ro/di system you can have.
Looks like I'm keeping up with the every 4 month update. I helped @newfly breakdown his tank and got all of his rocks and what was left of the corals in his tank. I ended up just stacking them all on my existing rockscape. I kind like the look and the fish definitely like all the new holes.
Sorry everyone that this has taken so long to wrap up. Lets vote for who's build won!!!
