    How many gallons do you get from your DI resin?

    No chemistry expert here, but why don't you run a carbon block filter in a stage before the DI resin?

    Bob Fenner at Jenkinson's Aquarium! Sunday August 27

    Everyone is so quiet about the upcoming meeting. I guess most of our meeting discussions must center around the food and beer we're bringing! :o I'm getting anxious! Can't wait for Sunday. ;D

    Shroom Killer!

    Hey Jeff, It's usually a period of a few days. Not right away, but not too long. There are a few tiny survivors, I'll try moving them around.

    How many gallons do you get from your DI resin?

    I'm about 200 gallons on my DI that I changed out right after the AWI buy with 0 tds and not even a hint of color change. My RO into the DI unit usually runs between 2 and 4ppm.

    Will those guns work on damsels in a tank? You could make a few bucks renting them out to club members! ;D

    Shroom Killer!

    Hey Brian, You've seen my water, more LPS friendly with lots of life. I don't think it's too clean! Placement was all at the bottom. I'm reading now that the rics might do better up top so I'll be moving them tonight. So when is the new tank coming??

    Shroom Killer!

    That's my new screen name based on my experience! Maybe shroom shrinker is more appropriate. Every LPS and Softie I have is thriving, but the few shrooms or rics I have are all shrunken or have disappeared. I have some in each of my 3 tanks. Tank parameters are usually 1.025 sg, 8.01 ph, 3.66...

    Next Softie??

    Well I'm done making decisions about my next softies thanks to Mike. ;D Now I'm contemplating letting a few move in with my LPS to make some room in the 55 for growth! I'm considering moving some anthelia and kenya trees out soon. I'll post here if I decide move some along!

    RO/DI, RO, or DI?

    David, I warm the water by using a mix of hot and cold water as the input from a faucet connetion instead of using a saddle valve to the cold water pipe. Rich, can you explain a little about the workings of a permeate pump? This caught my attention during the AWI group buy, but I never did the...

    Uh oh! Guess what you're buying tomorrow John! Thanks to Dan and family for being such gracious hosts! Another great meeting. I enjoyed getting to meet all the new members as well. Thanks to John I finally have something in my tank that isn't all green! And about all that beer... Thankfully...

    I might be able to give ground support as well, I'll check my schedule. I can have 2 tanks open to hold leftovers if needed, my 30gal QT and the 46 soon to be a FOWLR bowfront. I might have a few bucks for the wrapper fund too! ;D

    Bob Fenner at Jenkinson's Aquarium! Sunday August 27

    I have never had to pay to park as long as I'm willing to walk. If you head down to the south end of the boardwalk and go inland a block or 2 you can usually get a space.
