Default ALBERTA REEF 7 Stage 300gpd RO/DI

I started with a Coralife 4 stage 50gpd RO/DI system. Ran it for all most a year. I was having problems from the start, from missing membrane, then fittings leaking, poor pure water out put. The big kick missing the flow restictor. I am stuck with it!

Not worth the money.

So I played bit with this on. Change the fittings, bought a booster pump and guage. still not right. The I put a valve on the waste water side and dialed it in. I got close to 45gpd. The best I was goning to get.


Then I bought a used 3 stage 24gpd RO system for $20.

So I had parts for a 6 stage system. But Being a Guy wasn't big enought. I was looking on Bulk Reef Supplies and Got an Idea! An awful idea!, Got A WONDERFUL, AWFUL IDEA! 7 STAGE 300GPD RO/DI SYSTEM. So I made my order. I just finish it last night. Now Just alittle ajustments and testing.

Not pretty


I will get into more details as I fine tune. Like the rats nest under the sink
