I started a 15 gallon reef tank about 3 weeks ago just using tap water with a water conditioner and everything is doing fine other then alge and I am aware i need RODI water. If i start doing water changes with RODI will it filter out my tap water ?
I started a 15 gallon reef tank about 3 weeks ago and used tap water with a water conditoner, everything has been doing good other then having alge issues and i am aware I should be using RODI water. If i start doing water changes with RODI from now on will that tap water be filtered out ?
So I'm new to making saltwater, been using LFS water and they use Fritz salt.
Finally ordering an RODI system and going to be making my own saltwater and all.
I know it's ideal to use to same salt you've been using with your system, but Fritz salt is like 2-3x's more expensive than some of the...

I'm new to the hobby and I'm thinking about getting an RO system for my tank, I've been using tap water with a conditioner(i know its a lot less than ideal) hence the reason I'm looking to buy an RO or RODI system. the quesion is, is an RO system good enough or better than tap with a...
I’m running two carbon, one paper, one membrane, and one DI canister. I just replaced everything as I’ve recently moved and I’m on well water. I bought a higher quality membrane and it’s typically 5 ppm before hitting the DI. Based on what I read it sounds like that’s on the money.
Problem Is...

I’ve recently moved to Colorado from Florida. I’ve noticed that the tap water here is cold enough someone LITERALLY does not need ice lol.
In fact when the rodi was running at night to fill 100 g system (Total water volume). There was condensation on the unit. At just a hair under 80 psi and...
Simple question, if a TDS meter is reading 0 on output source water , the membrane is 2.5 years old and the other filters are about 8-9 months old can harmful bacteria grow on those filters contaminating the water? Why should you change the filters even if tds is reading 0?
Hello All,
Ive been having some issues with my tank, through ICP testing and regular testing I ruled out all obvious issues. Literally the only thing I havnt done was change out my RODO filters and membrane. I have a 6 stage RODI filter system 150 GPD from BRS. My TDS meter reads 0 and ill post...
Im 18 and still live at home right now. I use the bathroom to do water changes but the RODI system is too big to store in the bathroom. I wanted to set it up in the garage. Do i need to make new fresh water everytime i do a water change or can i make it ahead of time and store it in jugs. Sorry...
Hey, I want a RODI UNit because got to the pet store 50 miles away doesn’t work for saltwater. I have a local water shop (weird huh) that offers distilled and Cleaned pure water, but a RODI unit would be helpful. Here is my problem, I’m 17 and still live with my parents, I use my bathroom to do...

Looking at using the autoaqua ASOV to shut off my RODI unit instead of relying on float valve and auto shut off valve.
wondering if anyone else has used this product and have they had any reliability issues with the sensor or solenoid valve. TIA
Hey guys i have a RODI system and i feel like the water flow is very weak, I also have a Booster pump currently at 80 PSI.
Does anyone know what the water flow should be like?
Took me about an 45 minutes to an hour to make 10 gallons of water, Is that normal?
Hey just bought a Aquatic Life Buddie RODI, and I tried to hook it up to the faucet but the faucet with the aerator removed was too small. I measured out the aerator and it was 3/4". I was wondering how I can manage to fit the adapter onto my faucet.

4 stage brs rodi w/tds meter 75GPD $75
So my recent Triton test results show a high amount of Manganese, Silicon, Zinc, Iron, and a bit of phosphate. I'm using Tropic Marin Pro. I have a feeling these results could have come more from the RO water and not the salt mix, So I'll be sending a test in for just the water soon.
I have 4...
Hi all!
I have a quick question about an rodi resin canister. I bought the system secondhand and this is the first time I am replacing the resin. I see canisters similar to mine online that are single use, but I have a baggie of new resin that I bought with the system. Will I be able to get...
