Hi guys,
Sorry for asking so many questions. I am totally lost with this RO stuff.
- What is the difference with RO system with a small tank and without ?
I went to friend's shop and he said that they are not selling RO system, only sells UF
membrance unit. But to me, it's the same stuff, just RO has a small water tank.
The stuff that he sells is the same with the one that RandalB posted (the pictures)
(no small tank).
- Difference bettween 4 stage or 5 stage ? which one that my discus ( ;D) need ?
- Shop owner told me that i might need a pump for the RO system (with a small tank)
If i use UF membrance unit, i dont have to use pump.
Is this correct ?
- The RO with a small tank can produce low TDS reading (ppm). It can get close to zero ppm.
But it wastes the water, since to produce 10 litres of RO water, i have to use 20-30 litres of
tap water. Is this correct ?
- What is the TDS reading for growing discus baby ? My tds reading is 450. :(
- Does discus breed better in lower ppm ?
I am really sorry for asking these questions. I am thinking of buying RO next month.
I have a special price from someone that i helped last month.
For the RO system, 4 stages - 50GPD - for A$235 (US$150)
RO system 5 stages - 50GPD - A$260 (US$169)
Those RO system comes with a mini tank.
Regards,
Ronny
