Reef Chemistry Question of the Day #37
You are using RO/DI water to replace evaporation in your aquarium. In each scenario below, assume the same total amount of evaporation replacement water is used.
Which of the following is the least efficient way to run an RO/DI in terms of DI resin usage in a month, and why. If you know it, give not just the common name for the reason, but describe the mechanism.
A. Making just as much RO/DI water as you need each day.
B. Making four big batches of RO/DI water and using them each over the course of a week.
C. Making one, even bigger, batch of RO/DI water and using it all over the course of a month.
Good luck!
