So I went to my local saltwater aquarium store and I got some RODI water in my seven gallon container, and when I got home to test it with my meter it reads 150 PPM. I also have some distilled water that I bought yesterday and tested that and it reads 0 PPM so I know my meter is not broken. I'm...
Hello, I just added the brs water save upgrade, a booster pump, and I changed out my di resin and sediment filters on my brs 75gpd 4 stage unit. I used the unit yesterday and the water was coming out at 0 tds and I made a big batch of water. Now today the water is coming out at 3 tds. I’m not...
Hello everyone so I am soon going to purchase an RODI system for underneath my bathroom sink and before I get it I want to know where I should drill the hole for the drain line on the filter. I know putting it straight into the sink is an option but I’d rather have it look tidier. Some people...
Sharing a quick review since I got this in today and hooked up couple points
Quiet near silent can't really hear the unit
Water is clean real clean
Build quality is really well really simple to hookup the unit
I had to use the black connection to run under my sink this is where I was confused...
Hello, my brs 4 stage 75gpd rodi unit started making water that had a tds of 2 ppm last week. I've had the unit for 6 months now and I'm assuming it's time to change out the filters.
I changed the di resin today and it's still producing water with a tds of 1 ppm. I’m pretty sure I packed it in...

Hello,
I recently moved to south florida and bought a house.
I have a well in the back yard for the sprinklers. Because it’s a well I don’t pay for the water. I purchased a TDS meter. I checked my tap water and it’s reading 120. I went outside and tested the well water and it’s 150.
I’m...

Hi all,
Only my second research post on here but so far everyone’s been so helpful as I’m a new saltwater nano tank noob.
As my first tank is only a 10G, I’ve quite rightly been advised that splashing out on a expensive auto water change system is pointless, but I do still want to invest in a...
I just got a new Rodi system and I had to get a booster for it too. it is a 6-stage BRS rodi system. I hooked everything up and made water. my only problem is that the pressure gauge was only reading 20 Psi when I thought it was supposed to be higher than that. I have well water and don't know...
Hello R2R Community,
I am having the strangest experience with my RODI system. This system has been in place for 2-3 years and was running decently before this behavior began. The system is an AquaticLife 4 stage 75GPD twist in unit and it ran great for two years, feeding a smaller 2.5g...
Greetings,
I’m moving to a rural area that’s been undergoing water line repairs with periodic boil advisories. I have a mixed reef, therefore want to ensure my water remains safe and healthy for the tank.
I’m hoping to buy water from a local fish store, but that’s a 1 hour trip each time...
Im sure this is a difficult thing to answer but has anyone ever had there RODI end up pulling how water from somewhere when connected to a washer hook up line in a basement? lol the water is luke warm so you can tell my hot and cold are mixing somehow. Only noted when booster pump was installed...
I have a 7 Stage AquaFX (Whale Shark) With a booster pump.
Anytime I turn on the booster pump the main unit line shake like crazy and the pressure gauge just bounces all over the place. I've tried adjusting the valve on top and I can get it stable around 40ish PSI but that's not enough. The...

Title.
I have an RO Buddie System I bought years ago. I have a small set up (45g single tank) so it works for it. Can I buy a 75 GPD RO membrane for the 50 GPD unit?
Hey gang,
Let’s say that I somehow ended up with a 7 stage RODI filter, (don’t ask ). What is the correct order of filters? I’m going to have the last 3 be resin. Cation, Anion and mixed. What order should first 3 be?

Hi everyone!
I have a 40 gallon tank that has live rock and live sand as well as an artificial plant (until I get into all the reefing stuff once I’m more established in a year or more). I cycled my tank using the fritz turbo start 900 and ammonia method. After it was successfully cycled, I...

I’ve seen quite a few people who have drilled wall faceplates and screwed in some RODI quick connect adapters to them to get some halfway decent in wall connectors.
A while ago, I thought I saw someone whole had an appropriate 1/4” keystone like insert for 1/4” tubing.
Anyone know if this is a...
Hoping you can help out a newbie, I am setting up my first tank and bought a 200 GPD RODI from BRS. When I set it up I noted that outflow was low and that my waste ratio was horrible. The pressure gauge on the RODI unit was showing about 30 PSI, which I understand to be low for RODI function, so...

Hey all!
I have had my tank up an running for almost a year now and for the past few months I have had a bad case of what I think to be diatoms or dinos. Both my phosphates and nitrates are a little over 0 (API test, but it's the best I have right now). I recently acquired a TDS meter and the...
