RODI-Slimy Can

[Lisa]

I miss Tif & Ryan. I wonder how Tif is doing now that she is down in Florida
;).

Anyone know how to keep the can from getting slimy? I try to boil bleach and
rinse the can out once a day. Why does it keep getting slimy? Why do my
corals keep dying?

The slime in the water storage is slime from bacteria in the air, and
growing in your water. in MOST cases it is not to worry about, but if you
need to keep it cleaned out, bleach 1oz in 1 US gal is plenty to sanitize
for Homebrewing, it should also be enough for our tanks, be sure to clean
well by rinsing with a solution of clean water ( a few drops of
de-chlorinate wont hurt) after the sanitation process, as not to
contaminate your RO supply.
