I agree that 0 is the best and it is what we all should strive for... but do you really think this guy should dump a whole 50g tank because he is at 6? Come on... that is just overkill. I just spent 6 months low on cash and had to use my old RO unit at 22ppm and the only thing was a little extra algae growth on my glass. Everything else still did great... even my sps. Granted it's not something I would say is ok all the time and by all means try to run at 0. But to say anything over 0 and you need to replace your filters is just.... not realistic. You can listen you whoever you want.. and Randy, I know you know what you are talking about. But I don't think it is as important on a predator tank than it would be on a sps tank. I would take everyone advise but I also wouldn't freak out and dump all that water... just my 2 cents.
