RO Unit advice

[rickyjjuk]

Hi All :hi:

I'm currently using a small RO unit but it's notman enoughfor the job now. I'm running 10 tanks with frequent water changes now and would like to upgrade it. Does anyone have any suggestions or what model do you use?

Regards

The main problem you will have is getting enough water in a daily basis to service 10 tanks... this would need a professional unit...Have you considered a hma unit instead? this would provide you with much more water without all the wastage of r/o

I do 5% watwr changes on all my 7 tanks i use a 100 GPD R/O unit and a HMA unit

I have a 50gpd unit but added another membrane chamber and membrane. Take the waste from the first chamber and put into the second chamber then you get 1 waste and 2 ro. I joined the two ro together. I get more "good" water this way I use approx 200 litres a day of ro/hma mixed and it takes approx 5.5 - 6 hours to fill my 200 litre water butt

Use just HMA water at home and in all our shop stock tanks but I am lucky with water here it is lovely low TDS, Gh, Ph suits the soft water fish I import but not great for other species
