    I have a 46 gallon reef set up and I want to get a new RO/DI unit. I have no idea who to get or what to get.
    I hear that the Typhoon is supposed to be pretty good.
    I would also like an RO/DI unit that has everything that I need like the filters and stuff to get me started.

    Thanks

    bulkreefsupply.com is a lot cheaper than TheFilterGuys and they use the exact same filters.

    I wouldn't recommend that. You cant even see the menu on that website. Prolly the worst website i've ever seen.

    Get hold of Russ at Buckeye and he will fix you up , There is not a lick of difference between any brand filter they all use the same elements and do the same thing I took pieces from 3 old R/O units to build a R/O D.I unit that a guy here is using now and its as good as the best on the market as far as the water leaving the housing at 0 to 1 on a TDS meter .
