Im back with my 300g

[brick-brothers]

Hey guys I'm back with my 300g finally after a 4yrs break from the hobby due to recent move. I'm finally settle down and almost ready to add my first fish. I recently ran into well water issues and had to build a dagasser tube. Hopefully this will correct my TDS issue as I burn through 2 canisters of DI Resin with in a day.

Nice setup. Good call on degassing the well water.

Two DI resin canisters in one day?? You mean all day and all night, 24 hours? How many gallons of water were you able to make before blowing through the canisters?

Not even full 80g. I change my RO membrane and now I have the degasser. I'm waiting for my color changing resin that I order to come in so I can run everything again

Ouch. I hope you can get ahead of that situation— sounds expensive the way it is now. I was a little bummed when my two DI canisters needed changing after about 500 gallons. (TDS got to 2.) I have a booster pump and run at about 80-85 PSI— I hear that helps get more out of filters / membranes. Best wishes!

I actually do have a booster pump that's at 80psi. We'll see by this weekend I make new water
