New Member - 90 Gallon Setup

Spectrapure makes great Ro/Di units. I went with the cheaper refurbished units they sell for $120. Works great and no complaints. Excellent build quality. And the refurb unit looks brand new

 

Captive Purity is another good brand, I have heard good things about B.R.S products as well.

+1 on RODI, it is a must!

 

Spectrapure is probably the best and buckeye field supply are also quality units which is what I got. Comes with pressure gauge and tds meter which are musts.

 

RO/DI is a must- BRS makes a good unit. You will probably need to add a 1050 or 1400 power head.

ATO is a must for me. It is really annoying to have to fill the tank everyday. Now I don't have to refill for 6 to 7 days.

 

Welcome to 3Reef!! Sweet looking 90 you got there! You should also check out the 90 Thread: Show Off Your Fish Tanks! - 3reef Forums

 

agreed..Bio Balls are over rated... jmo.

Welcome to 3Reef !
Nice looking setup, looks like your well on your way..... and in response to more rock..
...here's a picture of mine...same tank, and my rock is at terminal velocity ! LOL..no room for more....well maybe a little LOL ;D

 

Well thank you all for the recommendations. I'm just trying to figure out how to plum the RO/DI in my apartment with being able to return to "stock". I've read that you can get an adapter for the sink. But first if I were to cheap out and get a 30 GPD unit... well i'd be with out a kitchen sink for a day! I've also read that it's bad to leave the unit sit with out water for more than a week. It supposedly ruins the membrane?

Another quick question, do you guys think that I need to keep the XP-3 filter installed? I've added another few large "live" rocks to the mix. I'd like to remove from under my tank so I can setup and ATO system.

Thanks again!
