Beautiful! Thanks a lot! Im gonna watch videos and read reviews. How long have you had yours? How does membrane storage work when not using unit? Good prices and easily available parts (membranes, filters, etc)?

Ok. Ill look at 100gpd units. We wont know if we need a pump tii we know tap psi. Ill go research 100 gpd units. Any brands to look at/stay away from. Any problems with cheap / leaky fittings?

Can waste water be ran through ro unit again? That would be green, if I use a pump and water storage containers. Just wondering. Thanks for all replies!

Thanks mfdrook...! I wonder if a small marineland 3in1 pump/powerhead would work? That is a cheaper option, if it would work. Im unsure of psi from tap. We will test it.

Ok. How long does it take a 50gpd unit to produce 50 gallons?....24hours? Schism, how many waste gallons does your unit produce? I like 0tds out of box!

Thanks for replying. I want a 4 stage, so its gonna end up being a 50 gpd unit. I knew they had drain lines, but had no idea we were looking at that much waste. I plan to buy a tds meter, so built in is nothing I need.

Ive been researching and Im ready to purchase a ro/di unit. Im looking for the best quality unit for best price....like everyone else, Im sure. There are so many brands and Im not familiar with any! Looking at: AquaFX, Coralife, etc. Does ANYone have any advice? Good experiences, bad...

Good! Im a little ocd with my 3tanks. Ill keep an eye on him and keep his water clean. He seemed a little stunned at first, but ok now. I saw silver scales on tank bed and missing scales on his sides....I flipped a little. Thanks again!

Thanks jlk! He is eating and swimming normally. I think Im more traumatized than he is. Thanks again!

Ooops! See, im so frantic i posted this in the wrong place. Im so sorry.

I have a 125gal fw comm tank with: 2 bala sharks, 2 silver dollars, 3 angels, 6 clown loaches, and 3 botia kubotai. Temp: 78.7, pH 6.5, 0 ammon n nitrite, 40ppm nitrates. I know nitrates are high, been doing daily water changes to get it down and waiting on our ro/di systm to arrive. I was doing...

Copachick, thanks! Its not any better, but no larger and not any worse. Im watching it closely! Sorry, i thought thats what we discussed too; with an additional comment on the species of fish we were discussing! How long did it take to heal on your bala?

I did a salt bath on my angels, but epsom salt is used for constipation. I used NON IODIZED table salt. Use tap water with a conditiiner like Prime by Seachem or Kordons AquaPlus to bind chlorine and chloramine in tap water. The advice in the previous thread is great, and they provided an...

Im no expert; ive kept fish for years, but not many illnesses. I recently had 4 angelfish develop an excess in slimecoat, then fin and tail rot. I ran to the angelfish forum for advice. I tried salt dips, quick cure, and melafix / pimafix....Not together. You do want to start with the least...

THANKS for replying! Thats what im hoping. Theres no red or open wound. Its really strange. I love these big guys too. They are the mist peaceful fish out of all 3 tanks we have; they are a little jumpy with sudden movements. Ill keep the water clean and keep a close eye on it.

I tried ti get pics...cant get him still enough. The 2 best i could get are in our album listed, our tanks. ANYONE????

Hello all! Please help with our bala shark, Big Boy. We noticed yesterday that he has something at the right corner of his mouth. It looks like a fish-version of a skin tag. We have kept fish for years, but have never seen this on any fish. Its in the very far corner of his mouth (if hed open...

Re: phosphates...we will have to pick up a test kit to test it. We use tap water for pwc's. I thought the chem-pure would help and we converted to sand substrate. Its all helped but iour CAE keeps getting sick, and its always when the brown stuff comes back.

Thanks. Im getting mixed reviews. We are trying to get rid of diatoms / brown algae. Everything else is great. We have a 125 gal with a fluval 405 and an eheim eco pro 2236 and a 55 gal with an eheim 2236. Parameters are alll good as we do 25% water changes weekly. We have multiple live...

Thanks for replying! We have eheim eco pros and fluval 405 canister filters. We just thought uv sterilizers would help keep water quality pristine. We have no idea what brands or styles are best. Thanks again; I'll read up on use in fw tanks.

ANYone??
