ok when i first set up my tank i had bought the aquarium pharm tap water filter, and i usually get 50 or so gallons out of it, my tank was algae free for 3 or so months. one day the cartridge ran out so i switched over to distilled, a few weeks later, bam, cyano and hair algae started to grow. are you telling me that tap water filter is actually worth it? i can't buy an ro/di unit b/c my dad says it wastes a ton of water and such, and he'd make me pay the water bill lol
