Viper my membrane is brand new, thats why I am not understanding the 7ppm? Blue z no need to feel bad, it seems I misunderstood (yes mine has the male to male fittings that can't be rerouted). No big deal either way, at least now I have a good understanding of how these rodis work! So I'll be ordering a separate di chamber and another carbon filter (or should I go with another sediment filter?) for where the di is now, should I go ahead and order more di resin as well or might my current orange di resin still have some life left in it? Thanks for helping me sort this out guys!

Ok I did just replace all my filters but I was advised that I could omit one of my carbon blocks (due to low tap tds) and use that section for the di (my old di section wasn't reusable) which like parvo said put it before the RO section. So I guess that's where I went wrong. Thanks for the help guys. I am still wondering why I'm getting 7 tds from the RO though?

My water is spliced into my cold water line under the kitchen sink and the pic is flipped around, it goes sediment, carbon, then di filter. Thanks for the reply, I'm wondering if I just bought cheap filters but really 2 hours? It just doesn't make sense to me

Ok so I waited way too long to replace my rodi filters (5 years) but I finally got it done yesterday! Problem is my blue di chamber (and my sediment filter) turned completely orange during the first 2 hours of running it and my water currently tests as Ro 7ppmDi 2ppmTap 23ppmThese numbers are about the same as before I replaced the filters (not happy)! What is going on? Is it the cheap Amazon filters I ordered? Thanks guys

Lol I'd like to know as well

Ya I'm with you on that, I'll be more careful from now on as well. Very interesting that zoas and palys technically aren't corals too.

What Do You All Prefer, SPS, LPS, Softies??
xxkenny90xx replied to TaylorW's topic in General Discussion
Lps and softies for me too (although anemones are my true love). An encrusting Monti just does nothing for me but a hammer or Duncan (or maybe some xenia..) blowing in the current, yes please! -
Which fish have the best personalities?
xxkenny90xx replied to xxkenny90xx's topic in General Discussion
I do like the dusky jawfish, so weird looking. Yep i asked my lfs to get me a pair and they ordered 4 pairs so I grabbed the ones that looked like they liked each other the most. -

Well here's what we ended up with. Got them about a week ago and our big tang chased the tiny goby into hiding right away. We thought he was a gonner for sure until my daughter spotted them today! -
Welcome from Tacoma, glad to see more Wa people on here!

I'm thinking spawn as well -

Reefcleaners.com It's my second clean up crew order from them and couldn't be happier. It was just hilarious watching him hitch a ride on the turbo snail.

Since I'm clueless about all of this I'll just order the one you use, thanks Suncrest! -
Just got a clean up crew order in the mail which included a cheapo pincushion urchin. It's nothing special but man it's fast!

Those glasses are actually on my list of things to buy, I'll probably pick up some glasses and an orange filter. Great suggestions guys, thanks (I was nervous you would say to buy a $2000 camera or something)! -

xxkenny90xx replied to xxkenny90xx's topic in General Discussion
Thanks for the reply. Interesting, I've never seen anything like that before. I found this on Amazon for like $6, or can you send me an example of what you mean? -
Ok so I can't seem to get a good picture of my tank, got any tips for me? I'm just using my smartphone but it has a pretty good camera in it. Day time pics turn out fine but once the blue leds kick on and the whites off I can't get a good pic to save my life (the glowing corals don't really show up). I'm not against buying a camera if I must but it would have to be on the cheaper end (and I'm not sure what to look for). Thanks guys!
