    The output before the DI cartridge is very slow as well. I removed the first (fiber) cartridge, no change. When I took out the first carbon cartridge and put the empty canister back on water gushed through, like it never had before (too fast). ???

    RO system stopped making water

    Swimming in circles It was like he had one of his side fins removed. Fully colored, swimming under his own power, in a circle about 3" in diameter at about a 45 degree angle, inward. The only thing I could think of was physical damage, although I couldn't see the inward facing downward side...

    OK, so maybe the new Chromis were just not a healthy lot. Maybe that is why one disapperaed each night for 4 straight nights. Wrong.... Tonight I saw Sally Light Foot eating the remains of my (formally)perfectly healthy and happy medium sized Yellow Tang.:(:( I've tried trapping it a while...
