i just measured the TDS of my tapwater (same water line that goes into my filtration system). and got a reading of 83 TDS!

i do believe it was at least twice as high back in the summer during our local drought.

the water coming out of my RO/DI is 0 TDS, and i haven't had to change any filters or DI resin in 9 months.

any idea what the dkH of your well water is? i knew of some people up in the mountains who basically lived on a large lime deposit. their water was very hard, which is great for running a reef tank apparently.
