Got My RO!
It says it has mixed back Deionization Filter in it as well, does this mean its ro/di?

Yup. That is green DI resin in the canister.

Usually it is the last stage of filtration: after the RO membrane. The difference in this setup is that you can't "T" the line off to collect RO water and RO/DI water separately. That's fine for your aquarium water, but I wouldn't drink the RO/DI water.

Oh! Looking at the tubing in the photo, it looks like you will be able to. It runs from the second canister to the RO membrane, and I assume from the RO membrane to the DI canister.

Just ignore me.

Thanks Shelley, it looks like you can drain before the DI resin

Well quick update, no pictures tonight, maybe tomorrow.

Rearranged the aquascape into a cove, and sucked out 10lbs of sand, I can see some BB so over the next week or 2 I hope to suck out the rest and keep it BB for a bit and then decide whether or not to add a thin layer of white sand. Also got a new scooter blenny, this one is much fatter then my old one, and he eats pellets, flakes, and mysis! So this one shouldn't be as picky as the old who would only eat mysis. Still miss the little bugger.

Also after 7 days of no poops from the little one(baby) she decided to fill three diapers and a onesie tonight... Lol bath time, looks like my hands won't be going in the tank for a day or 2
