On my ro- di unit I shut valves and let it pressure up and back flush then opened valves back up now it's ready zero. I also checked it with hand held meter and it read zero so I'm not sure y it was reading 2 ppm

Did a few things today built removable sub floor and mounted Neptune. I have Neptune hooked to Internet but still have to program.

So today I was playing around with my apex neptune trying to program my jebao wave makers and lights but I'm not finding it very user friendly I thought it was going to be easier but maybe I just need more time with it. I also found the instruction cd manual to be all over the place and having to go back and forth trying to figure things out.

My tap water in Toronto has about 250 TDS. Yours seem very high.

It's because it's well water it actually goes over 1000 ppm my water is really soft and clear and no chlorine but was lab tested and it's all good.

bleach or muriatic?

Do you need to do that with the base rock ???

Scape looks great if you can replicate that in the tank.
