Yes, thats sounds like a wet/dry filter...you should keep it clean. Anything in there can and usually does affect your main tank. RO is Reverse Osmosis...a highly purifying water filer. Do you need one? Most will say yes. Some will say no...in most domestic water supplies, there is bacteria...

What is in the tank with him? Fish tend to dull due to a variety of reasons...of these, nutritional lacking, stress, disease, and so on. If your fish had cloudy eye issues, this is probably the cause for the dullness. You may go into the disease thread and present it to those folks.
