I think that LFS are probably not a good example to pattern a home system after. Not that there is anything wrong with LFS, it's just that they have a different purpose than we do at home. They really are just temporary holding centers. A successful store tank is the one that keeps livestock for the least amount of time while a successful home tank is one that keeps livestock forever.
As far as being a nano issue, the fact that I have a nano is the reason that I got a ro/di filter. I dont know if I could justify all of the watewater produced by my filter if I was making 50gal water changes with it. Infact I still feel a bit guilty and try to recover as much as I can for other uses. If I could be sure that the quality of Galgary's tap water would never fluctuate and also that my synthetic salt was formulated by taking into account the trace elements already present in the water I was mixing it in, I would probably switch back to tap.
