Nice pics. Beautiful fish. Thanks for sharing.

How did I miss that? Thanks @Muttley000

This is a box of Fritz. With room to spare.

Prime HD?

What size tanks?

Coming along nicely.

Everything looks great! Thanks for sharing.

I did call them yesterday. They think it’s just the pump. They say going from 25 into the pump and getting 95 out is not supposed to happen. So I am sending the pump and power supply back to them. We will see what happens then. I asked if they needed to replace the ro membrane and they said no, it’s fine. But we will see what happens with this pump issue first.

Paid $250 for an acan colony once. About 20 heads or so. No pics of it though.

I don’t understand what you just said. Lol. Did you make a post on that?

Yes

Tds going in is 264 the first time I ran it I was getting 8 out of the ro. After running for a while, it went up to 35. Rejection rate is “up to” 99%.

It’s not color changing, but I have a tds meter to tell me when di has gone bad. Where does everyone buy their Resin?

I have my pump plumbed at the beginning due to only having 25 psi entering the the RO membrane and it’s recommended to have at least 60psi.

I did check to be sure it was sealing. But I think the high pressure may be blowing water past the seals.

Anyone ever used this DI resin? Seems like a really good deal. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000X92KOC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_NaecDbWR9F6Z2

Picked on if these up today. Should be enough to hold a box of salt. And only $10 http://m.sterilite.com/mobile.html?id=802&ProductCategory=0&section=0

I never received a reply email from BRS so I called them. They said it sounds as if the pump is defective. Said ideal pressure is 60-65 psi. So I’m sending the pump back. But something isn’t right. I can’t seem to maintain 0tds coming out. That’s with 2 Di canisters. So I’m hoping it’s the pump. But I am thinking now that I have a bad ro membrane as well. Stage 1 = 1 micron sediment filter stage 2&3 = 1 micron carbon block stage 4 = 75 gpd RO membrane stage 5&6 = color changing DI everything is brand new. No way I should get anything more than 0tds. I am getting 35 after the ro and 4 coming out of both DI canisters.

The last pump I had before, I was dumb and sold everything thinking I could just walk away from the hobby, it ran about 65psi. My pressure when the pump is off is 25psi.

That’s a cool fish. Love the various designs and colors.

That’s a good price. Thanks for sharing.

Uline sells the buckets alone for $50. I pay $15 at Lowe’s for just the lid. So it’s really not that badly priced.

So I just looked up the optimal psi for the membrane. It is 60 psi.
