I need an opinion on my Silca filter for my RodI unit. As you can see in the pic it's almost half-way exhausted. My TDS meter reads 000 and 001. I would like to know if the Di resin looks like it's ready for a change or can it go a lil longer.

Thanks for looking!

Strictly a guess here as I do not have a RODI unit but I would think the qualifying parameter is the TDS. Until I got a constant read above 000 I think I would continue with it the way it is.

Problem is the water tastes clorinated and my Sediment and Carbon filters are almost 4 months with fairly heavy use, but they look clean.
Not only that my reef tank has broken out with heavy red slime (cyano) and green algae. I just recently added a Phosban reactor 2 weeks ago. I assume because of the clorinated taste from the water, it's time to change the filters. I was thinking about adding on another stage onto my Ro/di unit. The purpose would be for an added carbon filter. Was thinking about the reuseable carbon filter The Filter guys has to offer. What advise do you guys recommend?
