Hi all - anyone in the Surrey BC area in the know about the quality of the tap water? I was planning on using it for my pico, didn't have any RO immed available.

I'm in the Newtonish area (88th and KG) - thanks in advance!

I am at Gilford and mine out of the tape is about 30 (Havn't tested in a bit).
But if you are looking for some RO water drop me a line and I can set you up.
Might even have a frag or 2.

If you don't might Xenia's and star paulps.

Hey I have a used RODI unit that you can buy cheap, it's a captive purity and comes with a new prefilter cartridge for 50 bucks.

I'm in the Fraser Heights area of Surrey. I don't think the water out of the tap is too bad. I just use a rinky dinky Aqua Pharm Tap Water Purifier. Cheap to buy and hooks right up to your kitchen tap. Although, if you are setting up a pico tank, you might want to just go to a purified water store and buy a 5 gal jug when needed. Good luck!

I used one of the aqua pharm tap water things and it got my water down from ~50 ppm to ~7ppm, so it worked pretty darn good IMO.
