ro/di

So I bought a 4 stage RO/DI system from BRS and then decided to add an additional DI canister. BRS's systems arrange these with 3 canisters mounted together on a brace and then whatever you want to add separately. But I've got 4 canisters andI need a 4 canister brace! This one single canister is...

I got a BRS 4-stage RO/DI unit set-up last night. Let it run for a while to "flush out" whatever it needs to flush. But checking the TDS readings now 12+ hrs later, it reads between 2 and 4 ppm on the output water. So not the ideal 0. Anybody got any ideas? Is 2-4 still acceptable (right now it...

I thought this would be helpful to anyone who is considering building a hybrid RO system for drinking water and 0 TDS deionized water for aquarium needs. I haven’t seen any write-ups or examples anywhere, so I thought I would share. I live in a condo, so I don't really have the luxury of having...

I just got my 15 gallon nano and now and I'm mentally figuring out the water situation. I am going to likely set up the RO/DI filters directly under the sink, and add a water storage container to the right of the sink, as you can see in the picture. The space is 25" wide x 22.5" deep x 20"...

I just installed a 100gpd 4 stage RO/DI filter with 800 flow restrictor. Do to cold water (probably 60*) and a psi of 54, I’m getting a waste ratio of 25:1. This seems extremely wasteful. I don’t know how much a booster pump would help, but I thought maybe it would make more sense to try...

I have moved into an apartment, so my RO/DI system no longer has a place to go! This is a 6 stage FountainHead Water Systems unit—I'm including a link to their website if anyone is interested in looking at more info / specs for the unit. https://www.fountainheadwatersystems.com/aquariums.html...

Hello everyone, This would be my first ro/di system, ive done a good amount of research here and I really want to get a quality system and uses standard filters. From what i've read most people either recommend Spectrapure or BRS systems. Would this 10 year old USED SpectraPure CSPDI-180-MF...

Hello, so Im getting into the hobby and my local store recommended me to get an RO/DI system at some point, so I figured it might be best to start from now so the amount of salt in the water stays consistent. For context: My tank is going to be 32 gallons and mostly a fish tank, I don't plan...

I’m sure there is already a post somewhere about this. I can’t seem to find one. I’ve already installed a BRS 7 stage 150gpd system and it’s working great. Just want to get the most out of it. (I have pretty high chloramines) I’ve got a drinking water upgrade, permeate pump, booster pump and...

Hi all, I have a Fluval 13.5 that was given to me (set up for a few years prior) that I have now had for alittle over a year. It’s a mixed reef set up with a black clown, orchid dottyback, porcelain crab, Pom Pom crab, peppermint shrimp, one small red fromia star, a small CUC, some bubble tips...

I bought a tds meter separately from my RO/DI system, the three ways that came with the tds meter do not have the little blue clips. I’ve inserted the RO tubing into the fittings and tugged on them and they have not come back loose. Same with the meter probe itself. Am I good to pressurize...

Hi everyone. I am new to salt water aquariums, having had several fresh waters for many years. I purchased the Waterbox 15 gallon peninsula AIO tank and am doing my research on water now. I live in an apartment and do not have the ability to drill countertops, water pipes, etc. or alter plumbing...

I don't want to get mangled in a Facebook group for asking a silly question about ATOs but Google will not, under any circumstances, get what I'm trying to ask and just keeps sending me BRS links to auto top offs or clickbait YouTube videos. Great job Google. I'm asking this actually for my...

Hello all, I first joined the hobby in 2008 as a teenager after working hard to save up money, I ignorantly went into a big box pet store seeking a complete reef tank build. I was guided by an employee (who I found out later did not even have a fish tank) to buy a 42g bow-front tank, a hang on...

“Why am I burning through my DI?” is a question that we get asked often. Read our latest blog on why this may be happening and how to fix it.

I'm relatively new to saltwater keeping and will be planning on getting a saltwater tank soon. I've always used Fritz Complete which gets rid of ammonia, chlorine, nitrite, nitrate, and heavy metals in the water for my freshwater tanks. I've heard that a RO/DI system is used to remove chlorine...

So I just finished my first water change, but I'm about 1.5-2 gallons short of new fresh saltwater. My current salt is reading 1.027 with a refractometer. Can I just add 1.5-2 gallon of RO/DI fresh water to make up the difference or should I mix 2 gallons which is what I'm in the middle of now...

So I have some RO/DI water that was made before I needed it but then it was stored in a trash can. It smells odd now so I’m assuming I can’t use it but someone suggested asking if there was a way I could “clean” it. This seems far fetched to me, but I’ll humor them. It would be nice to not have...

Hello, I just finished all the plumbing on my new 40 gal reef tank. I wanted to test and make sure there are no leaks and since I'm not ready because I'm still searching for rock, etc.. I wanted to run a test with just water from the hose and then drain it out when done testing. Once all my...

I put this system together a while back and was just about to rebuild it with new piping and schedule 80 gate valves, unions and other necessary items. Depending on your intended build, this is a complete system. I do automatic water changes, but I also use a Tunze 8155 for my ATO. Because of...

Hello everyone, I've been having issues with ammonium readings in fresh made ro/di water lately. I'm using this ro setup from BRS and swapped all the canisters last week, however the problem still persisted. So I upgraded the carbon block to this and took another reading again no change. Here is...
