hey i wana setup a jbj 28 gallon and was wondering is this good enough for my water in the reef tank?

I have one and I am very happy with it. My tap water is very good and this filter takes the last bit out of it. My algae problems went away completely when I started using this product.
My only issues is getting replacement filters. Have to order them as nobody carries them.

I agree. For a smaller tank, they are great.

I've tried one for a while when i had my 29 gal tank, But with the well water I had in NJ I was going through the filters too quickly. A RO/DI unit ended up being cheeper for the long term. Now with a 38 and 90 gal it wouldn't be too practical even though my water quality her in VA is way better then it was in NJ. Just some food for thought..

I was going through a filter every 20 gallons.
