In light of the fact that the tap water around here is getting worse by the week I decided to set up a little garden shed with a 100gpd RO/DI unit and some sediment and carbon block filters.
The water is coming from the main tank through the first sed/carbon filter to the RO unit, from there into a 300gal storage tank. The outgoing water is passing through another sediment carbon filter before reaching my discus tanks.
The plan is to switch my wilds to pure RO (with added minerals if necessary), to entice some some more color and potentially breeding behavior out of them.
Once the newly planned aquarium becomes a reality I might have to upgrade the RO unit, but for now it’s surpassing the 100gpd due to the warm tap water.

Excuse the dirty floor, had some minor leaks and I live in the middle of the desert 😀
