rodi unit
Since we are getting a 120 gal tank and sump we want to make our own rodi water. What units do you use? What do you think about the TYPHOON III?

Save your money and get the 5 stage from www.thefilterguys.biz They have great customer service too. If you are asking about what the tds meter does, it measures Total Disolved Solids in the water. After the DI stage your water should be totally pure, 0 tds. I replace my DI resin when my tds gets above 1.

seems like the pricing is about the same and some units come with a tds meter and Automatic Shut Off Valve on the site with the typoon III.
I would love to hear which units you use and which ones you like/dislike.

I bought a unit from purley H2o that I am really happy with. http://www.purelyh2o.com/
I bought the optima vision but I only have a 30 gal tank so I dont have a huge water need. Great unit I would buy from them again. |

I went with the The Typhoon Reefkeeping RODI 5 stage with ASOV from airwaterice. I can't wait to get it!
