I'm using RODI water through my Aqua FX Baracuda: http://www.aquariumwaterfilters.com/...category_id=12
I am also using a TLF 150 reactor with bio pellets. I don't feed to often, every couple days. I am bad about water changes but have done a few this week already. I do have a ball of cheato in there that has not really grown in size in the 4 weeks it was in there. Bioload in a RSM250 is: 2 bangaii cards 2 perc clowns 1 6 line wrasse 1 foxface

Does the cheato have a light?

your cheato wont grow much if it all if your running bio pellets. how long have you been running the pellets? the cheato and pellets are in direct competion for the same nutrients

if your pellets are not tumbling hard then they dump a slime into your tank and you get a huge ha outbreaki had this happen to me too. take your reactor off line and clean it well, rinse the pellets, clean the pump and hoses good, when you get it started again make sure they tumble hard

I too am having an HA problem. Ironically, it's come back SINCE I started running pellets.
I do a 15% water change every 7 days (max) I feed very little My Bioload is low Pellets tumble hard I've reduced my photo period and added a chiller and things are a bit better but not great. I rented a sea hare from Red Coral but they only had a small one. I thougt it might be good to get in tight areas but the thing spent 2 days on the glass then disppeared into the rockwork never to be seen again. I tore half the tank apart to find him and nothing. Now I'm doing even more water changes !! There is no easy answer/solution !
