Hi all, just introducing myself really, I live near Southampton UK, 47 years old with a family consisting of 2 kids, so my reefing time is limited!! I have a bit of experience in pond and tropical fish keeping, but after my neighbour sold me a Juwel 180 Rio for £50 I thought id enter the more complex world of a marine / reef aquarium. I am coming towards the end of my cycle, and have just gone through the algae bloom stage, so everything is coming along. My only reservation and something i need to build up the courage to do is install an RO unit in the house, (currently I am buying RO water from the LFS). Anyone done this recently, is it tricky or straight forward. Should i convert the whole house to RO water, or can i install one to the outlet to the garden hose, which is where Id like to fill my containers from. How quickly will an RO unit fill a 25ltr container? Finally can anyone recommend a reasonably priced unit, available in the UK, that would meet my needs, ie easy to install and keep a 180ltr tank supplied with enough RO for water changes as needed? Currently I am keeping around 75ltrs of RO on standby for water changes.
Thanks for any help and advice in advance.
Paul.
