Yeah, people only tend to keep one flame angel though.... cos their like £60 a throw lol.

Wooooow! Thats a bit salty! (excuse the pun). Very nice fish though

PS. Ive been looking at RO units. Is a 2 phase unit the one for the job?

 

[pengy666]

I have this unit,

Dont waste time or money here you gotta budget £100 and it gotta have a DI unit and TDS meter

RO unit

It is absolutly excellent quality unit! oh and it is HUGE!

HMM I wanted two flame angels I'll make sure I leave wife at home when I buy them then!

 

[shibby]

i as always sugest a flasher wrasse, blue spotted leapord wrasse, 6line wrasse, a fireball dwarf angel, a small shoal of 3 blue star damsels or alan damsels and a jawfish if sandbed deep enough, also a neon goby to keep things in check!

fireballs or coral beautys are cheaper i can get a flame for £42

*slaps Shibby*

 

[pengy666]

well you would expect so he works for a FS??

 

[Musho3210]

dont think that you need a DI resin, if you are on a budget but want good water you can skip the DI part. You can always add on a separate DI resin later on really easily.

 

[AK77]

well you would expect so he works for a FS??

Yup, but I just enjoy slapping Shibby about. He enjoys it too.

 

[pengy666]

do you by any chance live near or know shibby then??

 

[AK77]

No. Not since I got a restraining order against him.

Been looking at that RO-MAN website. Amazing quality products. I think I will spend the little extra and get one with a DI resin.

What is the rough size of these units? I am thinking of mounting it on the wall below my combi.

 

[Musho3210]

Heres mine

Thats a 5 gallon bucket and i used a saddle piercing valve to get the water. Of course you dont have to use a saddle piercing, it was just the easiest and best way to do it in my house.

 

[AK77]

Here's mine, wall mounted in the utlity room / shed / outhouse. I got it off ebay for just under £80 delivered, plus all the refills. Was pretty much a bargain for all the kit I got. Wall mounting it is a good idea too. I'd recommend gettting some heavy duty coach bolts and raw plugs to hold it up with. They are heavy enough without having water in them too!

 

[Musho3210]

yeah, and if you use clear acrylic like me it is even more fragile.

Anyway im not a fan of ebay RO units..... Im not a fan of most things from china actually.....

 

[pengy666]

you can clearly see from AK77 it isnt from china that is the best money can buy RO unit made here in united kingdom.

I gotta say musho you know a lot of stuff but, by golly you are a grumpy bstard!

 

[Musho3210]

lol, most ebay things that are first hand at that price is generally chinese made.

Ive lived there, go there every once and a while, my mom is from there and i was born there, boy ive seen some really cheapo chinese stuff.... My mom always tells me to not buy chinese made products since they are bad quality. i live in america but lots of stuff here says "made in China", you dont have to live in china to be cursed by their products.
