I see these stations at my Publix and Walmart. Is this RO water? RODI water?

It’s called Primo Water. I added the filtration below.

The real question is, can I use this with a quality salt mix for my reef aquarium? Or is it not worth it

It goes through a ro membrane but not di resin so technically it’s ro water. Usually for aquarium use we don’t run water through a carbon filter after going through the membrane. For aquariums the water is put through di resin to remove the last small amount of tds.
I probably wouldn’t use it for an aquarium.

I agree, however if it’s between that or tap water IMO do the primo.
Tap << primo << rodi

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