So when i maintained the JBJ in Calgary i was told by the previous owner to use only RO water from the grocery store .. AND I did religiously .
Yet somehow when I got this tank I totally forgot about that. Low and behold what is the first thing I read for newbies setting up tanks ....... GET AND RODI.
Now this began a week long hunt and stress out over which one was the right one .. There is so many reviews and opinions on what one to get .. It seems there are too many options lol . I would have been so happy if someone had just said there is only one kind for reef tanks and this is the price .
anyway . i ended up buying a MAXCAP 90. with dual TDS meters buy spectrapure.
showed up a week later and i could hardly wait to hook it up !
I wanted so bad to see what my tds was coming into the house lol ..
Turns out that after all that my tds coming in is a whopping 17ppm...
needless to say it is still a necessary step in the right direction
so 17 in , 0 after RO , and 0,0 after DI .
GOOD start .
All i can say is wow these things make water so slooowwwwww.
