Do I absolutely need the DI? I intend to upgrade soon it’s just I found myself in a position where I’m inheriting a 20 gal reef tank with two clown fish from a friend who’s moving to a different state and I literally know nothing

I may be wrong but I would probably tap the supply line going into the storage tank and run that to the di. Then you still have the tank full for drinking water even when making rodi.It does help in the long run. You can buy a DI add-on for your existing system. If the unit you already have uses a storage tank, the DI would go after the tank.
Hooking everything up won’t be a problem because luckily my boyfriend installs RO systems for a living, im more so just making sure that for the time being regular RO water will be safe for the fish when making salt waterI may be wrong but I would probably tap the supply line going into the storage tank and run that to the di.

Thank you so much, this was the answer to my question. Last time I checked a while ago I was at 30 TDS but was told I could get it down way lower. Going to test the water today and see what’s upI measure 5 TDS in the RO water and 0 TDS in the DI water. I haven't noticed a difference in the tank water quality. Just for reference my faucet water measures near 300 TDS.
