Doesn't Kent just sell replacements? Wouldn't that make sense?

I have a Kent Marine RO unit. I want to replace the two filters and the membrane. Can anyone help me with what I need? The model number on the unit is: Its a TFC unit: RO24TFCCL 24 Gallons Per Day. Please let me know where I can find these

So will it be ok to move it from the halides (much stronger lighting) to my PC's? My PC's are good they are not cheezy at all. Its a 46 bow if it matters, and actually thats what she has too.

I saw this product on here. Anyone use this as a maintenance? Its a liquid rather than using a filter bag thing.

Can I put one under PC's? My sis has one that split which is currently under Metal Halides

My temp is a little high, prob around 80. Also don't get me wrong, I want snails I just said they die. Im asking for recommendations on a type of snail. As for crabs I don't like them because they attack my snails, and eat them. Thats a little annoying. As of right now I have zero clean up...

From what is available on this site what do you guys recommend for a good crew. I don't want crabs but might be interested in a cucumber or two. I need things for substrate, glass, and LR. I have plenty algae that I can't seem to get a handle on. Its a 46 bow, reef. I need hardy stuff too...

No I have a skimmer but I meant what do you mean by increase skimming? It runs 24 hours a day. I use RO

By the way what is this velvet looking crap? Its like a dark maroon and it has a velvet texture. When I try to suck it up it all pulls together. When I find out what it is maybe this will indicate what is wrong. Also why the bleaching and dying coral?

What do you mean increase skimming? Increase the flow you mean? I do 5 gallons on the 46 each water change. I use a turkey baster with each cleaning. You run carbon all the time? I don't. I will if you say its better. I might have to change my Phos remover. I think I use Chemipure.

Heres the deal, I haven't been on here in a while and I'm totally disgusted with my tank. Algae is popping everywhere, I'm getting a brown velvet looking slime on the substrate, my coral is slowly dying off, now one is bleaching and the tank just looks crappy. I am doing nothing different but...

As long as after rinsing I can just put it right back into my tank, I will try this. Will this kill my Coral line algae?

I had hermit crabs, all they did was eat my snails. Personally I hate them and only find them to be annoying. Wish I had all the success everyone talks about with crabs.

Then aren't I going to have to recycle the rock? Is there any other option?

I have hair algae growing in the same exact spots that I continuously remove just to re-pick it days later. The snail cannot clean it because the rock is too porus (spell?) and they keep falling off. I have "0" Phosphates and I do have phosphate remover in the canister filter. My flow is good...
