6 stage 2 di 160066684259
then he sells some that claim zero tds i just want a good ro/di unit to remove ammonia and nitrates out of my water i really could careless about the other stuff, i dont want to spend really over a 100 for a system so that is why i cant get the better ones all though i was thinking about the coralife ones but i figured with all the extra filters and cheap it shoudl do about the same!
I sent the guy a email he said they waste about 4-5 gal per 1 gal made witch sucks also its out of the usa but there are other cheap ones on there i just dont know what to do but i know i need to do sumthing as my tap water filter is done and i need water!!
My tank is a fish only with messy eatters and the nitrates are killing me so i figure with source water being 30 it dont help the tank lol just let me know thanks
That's what figured you where talking about. I would not wasted my money(again). Go with a Typhoon or one of the other well talked about units.

Did some reading sounds like you are right and the typhoon is a great unit but what do i do intil i get enough money?
my tap water is bad
ammonia .25
nitrates 15-30 so changing water really makes it worst then it was before but after a mo the nitrates are around 200

well after more hrs of reading i think i will go with the water general under 130 shipped with all the extras still under 160 sounds okay to me!

hey i havent got one yet but i was looking at Typhoon and there is a kit for 150 and then 1 for 199 i dont see the difference besides a tds meter but i can get that for 25 bucks wow can somone please tell me what i am missing as i might be able to get this! Thanks

There are other differences between the units, but can't recall them off the top of my head and I know it's more than the TDS meter.....Does the cheaper model have the DI Bypass valve as well?? If your not sure contact AirWaterIce and talk to Walter he'll tell you the real difference between the 2 units.

okay thanks i think it is just a cuple of simple things like that, witch i would prolly never use so maybe i will got with the cheaper one and just add stuff later down the road sense everyone says its the best, Thanks
