Also keep in mind there is a difference between 0 and undetectable. I would bet that all of us that THINK we have 0 really have ~3-5ppm.
From what I understand...unless you are running a sps heavy tank, anything under 20ppm is acceptable. I have seen several people that run a softy only tank and believe part of there success is in running a "dirty" tank. So snaza, if you want to try to lower it some fine, but try not to stress over it to the point of adding specialized equipment just for it.
