back in may i got my first ro unit. for six years i just used my tap water. the tap water in boulder is pretty clean at around 45-50 tds. for all six of those years i battled with slime, hair, scuzzy, and any other kind of nuisance algae you can think of. it caused me to do more water changes (using just the tap water), which would never really fix the problem. it has cost me way over what a ro unit all those years ago would have. so just for recording purposes i took pictures once a month for the past three months. i think that the progress is awesome. i have not changed one thing, just using ro water now, and maybe a few good acquisitions. i actually do less water changes now than i did before.

it is not incredibly amazing, but for something that i had trouble with for years i am a little excited to see that it is going away! thank god for ro water!
