cherokee2871 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Hey Guys, Looking at my first purchase for my tank system and wanted to get the pros opinion on RODI units. What is a good number for TDS in the supply water what should I be looking for. Thanks for the help. Link to comment
Jruberti Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 0 TDS is the goal, and I would go with something effective and affordable like the BRS 4 Stage RO/DI Setup for $149.99. I've used a similar unit for years and by replacing the filters periodically, I can main 0-1 TDS. You can get replacement filters from them too here. Link to comment
drgibby Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 LOL i just asked the community this in this threadhttp://www.nano-reef.com/topic/375737-rodi-units/ and i just purchased this unithttp://spectrapure.c...lorine-Test-Kit seemed to be the consensus. Im really excited for itIt came down to BRS and spectrapure for me. What won me over is the cartridge quality that everyone kept talking about Link to comment
squamptonbc Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Spectra pure seems popular here, although where I am they are not competitive price wise or easy to obtain so I went with. http://www.vertexaquaristik.com/Products/WaterPurificationSystems/ReverseOsmosisSystems/Puratek100/tabid/200/language/en-US/Default.aspx And added a DI to it as I already had a canister for DI. Works for my needs. Gets the water from 60-70 to 0 no issue. Link to comment

Full system + replacement kit + TDS meter for $143.99, that's a good deal. Bookmarked it for future recommendations . Link to comment

Just ordered my replacement filters earlier this week and got them already. I really like it and my fish seem to like the quality of the RODI water produced lol. It isn't expensive and it is a great filter that comes with everything you need including all of the adapters to connect it to any faucet or hose. Link to comment
WRX Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Thanks Guys for the help. What's a good storage tank as I'm looking at a bigger tank and need a good bit of water to do water changes. How many gallons of water do you want to store? If you have the room, food safe Brute trash cans are a popular choice. Link to comment
cherokee2871 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 How many gallons of water do you want to store? If you have the room, food safe Brute trash cans are a popular choice. I've seen those. Just enough to handle weekly water changes on a 45 gallon tank. Those should work right? Link to comment
