    Nope just pure RO. You can match water temperature of the RO to the tank if you want, but anything else is not needed.

    ph ?

    K freshwater dips are easy. RO water at room or tank temp. A few sprays with the turkey baster like you were cleaning live rock. 3-8 minutes later return to tank. Seeing is how they've been closed for a while I'd aim for around the three minute mark.

    How long No Lights?

    I am so confused by that post... So how far off from the water are the lights? Are the T5s with individual reflectors? How much wattage? IMO your corals are adjusting to your new lights. T5s can rival MH for tank lighting. In particular in nano tanks. pics or it didn't happen.

    Buying RO water?

    what's your tapwater look like? Something that big I'd consider using it for a initial fill. (Matter of fact when I go large I will be.)
