That was it before, I'll get a pic of it now at some point, it's over extending and almost green.

CorallineAlgae said:Hegan has some excellent single t5 fixtures you can get on amazon. By the way, my brother set up his 75 with a combo of T5s and LEDs and his corals look way better with both then with either alone.
needmorecowbell said:I'll check them out, thanks. I just don't know what bulb I want, since I can only have one lol. I'm thinking maybe fiji or uv actinic..
needmorecowbell said:So I haven't been doing water changes because of the filter being messed up and my algae has slowed down drastically... Is this confirming my rodi is junk? I bought distilled for topoff water.
CorallineAlgae said:Sorry to hear that. Do you think changing the membrane and prefilters would get it in working order?
Oh, wait!!! You may need to check your flow restrictor. I had my flow restrictor go bad on me a while back add I had to replace it. I found that out only after I replaced everything on it and it still didn't work correctly. The good thing out of all that was I was able to get one for a 75 gpd membrane and I upped both the flow rate on my RO and improved my TDS levels out of the system. If that's your problem you can call BRS for the parts. The flow restrictor has to match the membrane.
needmorecowbell said:Well I bought a replacement kit today so I hope if will help.. Flow restrictor? I don't have a brs, mines from purewater club on ebay
jjamontan said:Just thought I would chime in. I also have the cheap unit from eBay ever since I got it ky algae growth has been crazy. I guess turning my facet all the way up it is not filtering filtering correctly.
needmorecowbell said:Well, If they all use the same filters, why does that happen? Have you used a more expensive filter also? Also, I'm not sure what you mean about the faucet, mines connected to the hose.. Do you not have enough pressure?
Nu-Nu the eel said:Hey adam whats the plan for the tank? How the corals and fish look? We have both had some dumpy luck lately :/
