Thanks Steve,

By "once in a while" what do you mean? Am I correct in my lighting and flow assumptions?

FWIW mine is pretty much at the bottom of the tank attached to the base rock. It is somewhat sheltered but still gets a fair bit of light.

I think the first thing to find out about before necessarily buying an RO unit is to find out what kind of quality water you are starting out with.
