UPDATE 75RR: 11-17-06 I tested my water the other day and everything was great! So, today I did a 20 gallon water change on the 75. I will test my water tomorrow and if it is good, then I may visit my LFS and bring a fishy home next week. Then again I may buy a Phosban Reactor instead.

UPDATE 75RR: 11-18-06 Today my skimmer is external! I removed it from the sump. I still need to finish the equipment stand but it works great! I also added a union fitting to my waterchange hose so I can mix the RO water better.
Enjoy!
