    Good news: Quite a few states have mandatory recycling with fines if you don't recycle properly (by ratio of recyclables to non recyclables in both...

    shipping Problems: Pics pg5, Vendor Revealed; Finally Resolved

    To be honest, I would have no qualms about leaving a well packaged shipment out for 2 hours in proper weather, like what clarky described.

    redseamax 500

    Thanks. Gotcha on the 250 haha, it would be pretty sweet. I wouldn't even mind a slightly bigger tank ATM, like a 90 though, cause as you can see,...

    redseamax 500

    I have pics, but it's not a 250 gallon lol. They measure those numbers in liters, so the 130 is a ~33 gallon, the 250 is a ~65 gallon, and the 500 is...

    The lights flipping up is nice, but the old hood system is pretty incredible IMO. It's got a flip up front like normal hoods, but then the back...

    Sunnuva $#%^@, the RSM250 was $1700 with the stand. If this one is going to be only $2500 with the stand, that sucks hardcore lol. I really do like...

    Which ro/di should I get?

    The standard maxcap DOES NOT have a 1:1 waste ratio. Only the $700+ he version does. Any normal ro unit should run 1:4, otherwise your membrane will...

    Which ro/di should I get?

    He's actually a water treatment facility guy in Arizona; I think Phoenix. So, water is his real job haha.

    Which ro/di should I get?

    Just go with the CSP-DI. No reason not to, TBH. The worst thing about going with a slower unit (I used to have a 24gpd) is that you end up with a...

    Which ro/di should I get?

    You're going to get 0 TDS from any decent, well maintained unit. The difference is in how long you'll get that for before you change DI resin (much...

    Which ro/di should I get?

    If you're looking at the DM-1 HM digital meter, that's the one that comes on the Spectrapure units. If you're looking at TDS-3, that's a handheld...

    Petco saltwater?

    I would run some tests on it. Calcium, alk, mag, and salinity. If all checks out, I see no problem. I doubt cal/alk/mag will, though.

    Which ro/di should I get?

    I agree on 4 stage, but only because a 3 stage unit isn't a RODI. It's RO only (carbon + micron + RO filter). The number of stages is a meaningless...

    Spectrapure. Best prefilters, best DI resin, best membrane, most features, one of the cheaper units in its general category, and cheapest in the long...

    Corailline's JBJ 28 gal. Acropora polyps.

    Cool stuff, corailline. I really like the new acro! If you want to get the colors to come across better, I would try Picasa. It's free, and has some...
