Water conidtioner in RO water

AYE RUSS

If you're already using filtered RO water is it still neccessary to use water conditioner ??

This depends on the quality of the filters. I had one that I will not name here, that didn't remove chlorimines, also keep in mind if you have a good RO unit you need to add treatments ment for RO water as its to pure for the fish to use.

I would say no since enough trace elements are usually provided in synthetic salt for FO /FOWLR.
As far as dechlorinator , I guess ok if your tap or RO water has chloramine for FO/FOWLR tank but I would not use any dechlorinator for reef set up. I rather just age the tap or RO water for reef since I very rarely done more than 5 % pwc at a time for reef. But always had reserve circulation 24/7/365.

I am sorry I don't know much about salt, I didn't even notice this was in the salt forum, I was just looking at unanswered post.
