On some of the other forums they don't put it that lightly.

Well, i was quite surprised by how maturely he takes comments made against himself, so while he might be adamant about reefkeeping, he sure keeps it at a professional level, which is a good thing.

One point he has going for him is he really knows his stuff, and we're lucky enough to have him share it.
You want abrasive, look through some of my old posts

I'm using RO water, but it's not RODI. We buy it at work and it's ozonized ( I asked questions about this earlier and it seemed like it wouldn't be a problem ).
Hydrometers can read 1.024 but actually be 1.028 so better to keep it a bit on the low side untill you buy a refractometer they are a lot more accurate.
