Yes I clicked on the link, but I wanted your guys opinions. I never trust websites trying to sell things, all they want is your money. But Im not buying anything from here so its a non bias opinion. I just wanted someone who has one, or has experience with them to tell me they are good and not a waist of money. Any time I buy an exotiq fish, they die within a week. I keep up on water changes, the only thing I dont have is a R/O filter fo my tap water. Something like the nitrate filter may help.

It works like a remote DSB. At the prices they are asking for them you should buy an RO/DI unit and make your own remote DSB. IMO

You can also look into a DIY coil denitrator. Plenty of plans if you do a search.
