This might seem like a silly question, but I'm asking because of the way you worded the above sentence. Were you meaning you did a 20 gallon "salt" water change using RO water?
Also, smaller/frequent water changes is much better than large infrequent water changes, IMO.
Oh, BTW, nice tank!

lol i thought you meant like 20 % changes weekly, to be honest i never thought about that before, i am in army flight school and at times its really hard to find spare time to dedicate to my tank but i try. I'm going to try to do a small water change weekly about 5 gallons. Thanks for everyones help.
