  1. Shower pressure is fine and it's on the 3rd floor.
  2. My house is well and I only get about 30 psi going into the membrane and also the di is getting exhausted very quickly. So I decided to get a pressure booster pump from brs. After I connected the pump. I only got 5 psi increase. From what I understand. There is no setting to change on the pump. I really don't know what to do. I can't keep buying di because it will be all done after 30g of water. Any suggestion? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    TDS

    How high is your TDS coming from your water source? I recently moved to a new home that has well water. My TDS is coming in at 340-350 and new DI chamber exhausted in a week. In my old home with city water, it was at average 150, and the DI can last for a long time before changing. Should I consider water softening system? Thanks
  4. Agreed. I just switched from a 180g to 600g. I saved as much as water, sand and rocks possible and everything seemed fine. Didn't even add anything bacteria.
  5. Yes I bought it new. Okay. I didn't want to open it but I m sure you are right!
  6. Who has a hammerhead hybrid? How do I know that I'm on hammer and not Barracuda?
  7. Because I want to have return on each side
  8. Overflow is 1.5 each
  9. i'm going to use all sch 40 also..
  10. I have well.. I just thought that it would be a longggg time! and my RO unit is still at my old house (where my current tank is). What do you all think of my diagram?
  11. I'm working on my 600g plumbing as we speak. The attachment is my idea. please let me know if i miss anything. Also, I was thinking to use tap water for the initial fill up since it might take days to get 700g RO water. Any suggestion welcome! fish tank diagram.xlsx
  12. Where did you get your water reservoir containers?
  13. I went to tractor supply last week.. all they have are wide base and short...
  14. I only saw 55g and 275g container... 275 is a little too big for my fish room...
  15. Thanks but that's not what I'm looking for. I need something for my water reservoir. 1 for fresh water and 1 for salt water. I found something in Ohio but shipping is expensive...
  16. I'm looking for water containers that can hold 100g and up. I prefer tall than wide. I know there are many places I can order online but I was hoping somewhere is close and I can buy it without paying shipping. Any suggestion?
  17. Thank you, Origami! Another question and many to come! I need to get more rocks for my new tank. Do you think it's okay to cure live rocks with no RO/DI water with prime?
  18. Where do I find a booster pump?
  19. I just don't want to drill my brand new and regret later. I'm trying not to put many holes as possible. @Geoffwehler: What am I supposed to test my water?
  20. I'm about to move into my new house and it has well water. Is something I need to worry about for my aquarium? Second question. I would like to do a close loop but I don't want to drill the tank. I need there is a way doing that. Any idea? Thanks Jeff
  21. Well, I bought that pump for $250. It's in good condition. I'm also looking for a Barracuda hybrid right now. It should be good enough for my 600g return and CL.
  22. I'm planning on t use it for return but it always feed to my frag tanks, gfo, reactor and such. I may still use it for close loop but i'm not sure yet
  23. Is it a good pump? I really know nothing about them. http://www.saltysupply.com/Dolphin-Amp-Master-Diamond-External-p/dp62502.htm
  24. interesting.. i always use schedule 40 but this big build.. everyone is recommending schedule 80.. i guess if it's not your money, you always recommend the best...
  25. Where is the best place to get them with the best price? I'm planning my 500G tank and I know those valves can be very costly. Thanks Jeff
