No, actually bought it from an online supplier (Marine Depot)

Hi, I just bought a RODI 35 gpd (Captive Purity) unit. There were no instructions in the box and can't seem to find any online. I see where the water line connects to the white hose but there are 2 lines (blue and black) that I'm assuming is the output.........What's the difference between the...

Any tips for cleaning a sump? I have a 50 gallon tank with a sump located underneath with skimmer, filter, heater, bio balls ............My water tests have been good and I do weekly 10% water changes. I have noticed deposits/scum in the sump. With the sump being only inches off the floor are...

Thanks...... I tried another method (recommended by my brother)......take a small air tube and run it up into the "J" tube and suck out the air. It did work but that sure was very nasty salty water to drink at 7:00 AM! I will use your method in the future! Thanks again!

I was looking at purchasing live sand for my 50 gallon tank (36" long). I cannot seem to find any info on the volume of a pound of live sand (I was looking at premium Florida live sand sold on this site). Any rough guesses would be appreciated...... Thanks!

What is the maximum amount of LR you would want to place in a 50g tank (36" length)? I was planning on using Fiji LR and buying 75lbs..........At what amount would it be too much (no room for fish to swim!)? Thanks!
