Where to get RODI water

[Larry101]

32 gallon bio cube, do I need to water condition distilled water too? And can I grow corals in that

No, you don’t need to condition distilled water. Just make sure you mix the salt to the correct salinity using a refractometer to guide you. You should indeed be able to grow corals, just make sure your parameters are right (ex: alkalinity, calcium, magnesium). Also make sure others have had success growing corals with the light on the biocube. I would highly recommend renting a par meter to see where you can place the corals and if the light is capable. Happy reefing :)

Not sure if you have an answer already but when i had my 75 salter water tank i would go to a regular machine around my city that dispenses filtered water. those machines already have the RODI thing inside so i would just fill up my 5 gallon jugs for 1$ -1.50$ and do my water changes on the weekend. if any key board warrior says other wise i tested the water with some expensive equipment and it was 99.8 clean . source ( 10+ years keeping fish)

A RO water dispenser at your local grocery store should suffice for now.

I used this method for over a year until i was able to purchase an RODI unit. :)

this guy knows ! until you can purchase a ro unit
