    Saltwater Premix Question

    In my never ending quest to gather as much information as I can BEFORE I start my tank, I have a question about premixing saltwater for water changes. I know that regular water changing is very important for keeping a health reef aquarium. Having premixed, ready to go, saltwater will make that...

    UV steralization on salt mixing station?!

    Hi guys! I know the title sounds ridiculous, why would you run a uv sterilizer on a mixing station? Long story short my step dad has had some health issues in the past which had led him to using a CPAP machine. With a CPAP machine you need to use distilled water due to the fact that it has no...

    RODI Unit efficiency

    Does anyone have actual evidenced backed input on the most efficient way to run a five-stage RODI unit? Is it better to run in small, frequent batches (example: 1 hour per day, 7 days per week), or occasional longer sessions (example: 7 hours once per week)? I'm thinking mainly from a DI...

    Finally getting a RODI System

    I’ve used plastic gallons of distilled water ever since I got my tank (2018). The price for 1 gallon of distilled water just went up 57% at the grocery store. Figured it makes more sense than ever to get one. Plus it’ll help reduce the use of plastic. Inflation..whew it’s hitting hard.

    Float Valve Failure; any insights?

    Preface: I know float valves can fail and shouldn’t be completely relied upon. However in the years since I started reefing my old containers and floats never had an issue; I always felt comfortable trusting them overnight at least. This new setup though…. I can’t figure out why my RODI...

    Best RODI maintenance?

    What RO systems do yall use and what's your average ppm? Recently, I've been using the Puratek 150GPD Deluxe for about 3-4months, and have noticed my ppm has gone from 0-8 very steadily. I havent noticed any changes in my tank(s) and I figured 8ppm was too little of most things to seriously...

    Anion without cation????

    So I have a local friend that runs cation, then anion, then two mixed bed resins (all color changing). He almost never runs out of cation but does run through anion. Being that I’m using the same city water supply, is there a reason that I can just skip the cation and run two anions instead? I’m...

    RODI Not Putting Out 0 TDS

    I've been struggling with red cyano again; and my corals haven't been happy for about a month. The issue I found is that my RODI membrane is putting our 36 TDS and the DI resin is only polishing it down to 8 TDS. I'm not sure how I missed this. So I've been cleaning out the cyano with water...

    BRS Mixed Bed Di Resign/Anion Di Resign

    Hello All, How can you tell when it is time to change out the resign media in the BRS Mixed Bed Di Resign/Cation Di Resign canisters? My Anion Di Resign canister (middle canister) is easy to tell as it changes to orange as its depleted. The other two I'm not entirely sure. I do have a triple...

    Get water from RODI storage to ato container

    I’m planning on building a stand in my garage to hold a brute up top and one underneath. The top one will store RODI. My tank is about 60 feet from this. Id like to have a length of RODI tubing that I keep rolled up in the garage to reach the tank to fill up my ato container. Can this be gravity...

    What is this growing in my rodi container?

    I have filled my rodi container and mixed it with salt and had the heater turned on and let it circulate for more than a week. I was unable to use the water immediately due to being sick. Now when I looked inside of it I found this brownish film along the edge and the water itself looks kinda...

    Tap water TDS 550, how many RODI stages should I use?

    I currently have a 4 stage filter for my tap water that is 550 TDS. I run through DI resin in about every 2 months for my 25 gallon tank. My tap water is not treated with chloramines. My filter does manage to remove everything so my output is 0 TDS. Lastly, I use the RODI buddy booster pump...

    Hot water in rodi

    I just plumbed in everything for my 6 stage rodi. Everything's new. I didn't realize that my blue handled faucet is actually hot water till I burned the @#$% out of myself. Not to mention I don't think it's set up correctly, the amount of water coming out the waste line is not normal. I will...
