I think you should support the sides a little more, I personally would sleep better at night. Other than that, your off to a great start. An image I pulled off the internet.

That's one thing i hate about R2R, as soon as someone criticizes a spospon, they start warning ppl and threaten to close the thread. If this vendor is going to make this claim, they should at least allow other passionate reefers to have a "heated" debate. It's so PG rated over there

If the unit is running properly, you should get 5gal of fresh RO in about 1hr, 1.5hrs give or take

It is, the VDM is also available

That too may be too much, in that small of a tank. Maybe just 1 n 1

That's fine

I think it's just 1 too many, they may compete for food sources. Unless you feed heavily

Possibly if enough water is running through it. Maybe 2:1, but again, its depending on your unit and its membrane. I wouldn't expect that from a buddy unit.

Gotcha Typically, you'll run about a 3:1, waste to "good" ratio as is but that depends on your unit more less.

Sure, but before a second ro membrane is added, check your psi going into the unit. With a second membrane, you may need a booster pump.

You can do that but your psi going into the RO will need to be high enough for it to be effective.

What size is the sump?

Bump

An interesting thread from R2R. FACT: RTN, STN and Coral Bleaching are caused by an infection due to microscopic parasites. Just wanted to share.

You can also re-purpose your mechanical section and make that a fuge.

I've run: A biopellet reactor, carbon, gfo, matrix.....you name it in my AIO tank. As it "matures", you'll find that less stuff will be needed. Right now, I'm only running a fuge and and a skimmer in mines.

I think it's a matter of necessity. For a new cycling tank....nothing, just some sponge/floss to catch the junk that'll be floating around. Later on when some fish are added, you could go with carbon just to keep the water clear. That with a skimmer should hold you down for a while.

Under where it says upcoming occurances. There's an RSVP section

Just RSVP

Itll still happen as.long as you want us to. Itll be informal as majority of the BOD will not be in attendance.
