If your DI is old get it changed out too.
since you have a somewhat small tank you could get a phosban reactor ad nrun ROWA phos to destroy the Phos, in your tank. what type of a skimmer are you using?

Not city water, It's a comunity well system. NO added chemicals though, that I know

I have a Phosban, but pout of Rowa at the moment. Little strapped for cash, but will get some soon

Water
Tap 345ppm

out of RO 9ppm

So I guess I need a membrane and a refillable DI canister. And the fluch connetors for the RO, and fload switches for the storage units, and some sand sifters, and................LMAO it never ends huh
