It took me 5 consecutive days running RO/DI to fill up my Big tank again (850 gallons w/sump).
Burned through new RO/DI filters and DI resin as well.

Cycling another round of XL sized Pukani dry rock for the big tank. Will add Fiji mud and beneficial bacteria in a bottle and then dose consistently po4 and no3 to keep them alive and take my time for 2.0. Seriously considering adding 30-50lbs of actual live rock from the ocean as well and let the rock cycle in darkness for 6 months (to kill off the bad stuff first). This would seed the dry rock and let that microbiont establish itself before introduction to my display tank.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
