Any updates on LFS carrying it in BC/Vancouver?

Mine go a week or two between changes. :redface:

Then after an extra rinse cycle, they go into a bucket of RO water with some Prime.

That covers off my main three.

Some people suggest King Ed Pet Centre. It's an interesting place.

Our TDS here in Metro Vancouver reads 12ppm on my TDS meter. Yet I still use RO/DI filtration. But it only cost me under $150 for the unit, so it was a no brainer.
