Just to give you a broader idea.... I have never used an RO unit,but occasionally I'll grab some from my buddy for top ups. You notice a different reaction from the corals in your tank with treated tap water versus RO water. If corals could talk they would vote for RO water hands down. That being said, Calgary water is some of the best and we are fortunate to have it. There are some LFS that use nothing but tap water (I won't mension who) and their corals seem fine.
