Are you asking if that RO unit is good enough for a marine aquarium? Sorry if I'm not totally understanding what your asking.

Yes. Because its only RO

In my opinion, the DI is essential for marine quality water. Alas, I'm still new to all this so I could be wrong

You would need to not use the taste cartridge at the minimum. If the list on the second photo is the arrangement of the filters, I don't know why you would have the UF after the RO. The micron size of UF is .01 at the smallest whereas a RO is .0005 so there really won't be anything for it to remove. If you are keeping corals, then I would suggest getting a RO unit that has sediment filter, then at least 1 carbon filter (I use 2) then RO membrane and then DI cartridge.

I looks like you have not made a purchase. I recommend Watts zero waste system. Works very well slow but extremely

effective. I added a DI ( deionization filter) at the suggestion of another member. Got it off amazon, with bags of replacement media from same person. I got a cheap TDS ( total dissolved solids ) meter, and it runs at zero. Just did a filter change it is not used for my drinking water only aquariums. I am rethinking that decision after my white filter came out like this
