Hi, sheag!

That's what I was talking... Why is it so expensive here?

I know it is mad money, ebay rules!!

Where ever you buy a RO system may I suggest you check out the prices also for the replacement filters. One other thing if you are buying from a main supplier good idea is to buy some 6 to 8mm tube. So you can top up your water level direct without much fuss. You still need to do water changes of course but it could get you out of trouble when your in a fix.

And sheag is correct these 4, 5 and 6 stage systems use pumps that give very low bar pressure and poor shelf life don't get me started on that..

But with all these water quality issues around these days the prices are going up...sad I know.

Ok! it's ok with RO on ebay, but really hard to find DI there... do you know any places who sell DI cartridges, and risin?

In ireland, water is v good for all soft And salt water fish.

What kind of fish do u want to keep, what is the volume of ur tank, species kept?
Tap water is v good here (for the fish), u should enjoy it and working as a base. I mean adjust the water parameters with natural factors like coral sand, will help to keep the pH >8,2.

I keep marines in 90L. tank. I use ocean water for changes and use tap water to top-up and notice a lot of green algae and Chlorophyta fast growing in aqua. I have to clean my front glass every 2-3 days... I keep few fishes and soft corals now, but want to move slowly to SPS & LPS reef corals. I need TOP quality water for them. Also my water has too much lime scale in it (KH is very high). I live in Limerick and water is hard here...

pH is not problem - algae is main

Only use ro in your tank mate you just cant trust tap water
get that ro up and running asap

I've got one from ebay for 65 with delivery which is very good, only one thing - iy's without pump, but I hope my pressure is quite enogh for it. It's 4 stage RO unit with DI cartrige.
