I have a onespot fox face. Only eats algae and anything I feed the tank.

What is your flush process for changing Sediment /Carbon/DI filters? Do the BRS mixed DI need to be flushed for a few gallons before use? I normally use SpectraPure MaxCap and SilicaBuster and I think the MaxCap needs to be flushed for awhile. I just got in BRS Pre-packed Mixed DI, I'm going to give that a try.

If I change out the sediment and carbon filters, I disconnect it before the RO unit and flush till it's clear and then another 10 gallons or so. Don't need that stuff clogging the membranes.

Change the RO membranes, flush again before the DI Resin, 30 minutes or so.

Change the DI, I don't flush, some people say to flush 5 gallons.

Let me know how the BRS resin works for you, it didn't seem to last as long as some others I've tried.

Thanks. Does the "flush valve" prevent the water from going into the membrane after the sediment and carbon? The spectrapure lasts a long time, I'm curious to see about this BRS DI as well. I'll keep you posted.

No it doesn't, it diverts some of the flow. You can unhook the hose before the RO, or you can remove the RO membrane.

I think in the past what I’ve done is pull my hose to the final/clean water and connect that to the exit of the carbon blocks to go down the drain.

During shipping we are going to run 2 things


1) we will do an unboxing contest for a $250 Gift card.

The rules are simple you need to do a video unboxing of the corals. This video will become part of a video serios testimonial on our website. In order to enter the video has to be a utube video. Has to state your name and show your face at the beginning. You will basically show a video of the unboxing receiving the corals in bags, the show them in your tank ect. Tag us here so we don’t miss it. Each entry will give you a chance at a win spin for the $250 gift card

2) we are doing a random sticker prize reveal. Every order will get a free sticker. and 5 lucky winners will have a number written on the sticker. It can be number 1-5. Whoever gets 1 will get prize 1 and be able to pick the prize 1st. and 2 gets 2nd ect all the way up to 5. So the winner will get a sticker with a number on it which will become your tank for picking one of the 5 prizes. As you get the sticker you need to tag us here and show your sticker number. We will reveal the prized later in this thread once all boxed are received.

Good luck everybody and we can’t wait to see what you get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My spectrapure MaxCap High Capacity lats 6-months before the TDS registers 1. At that point I replace it and the 2nd DI together. With the new 2x BRS DI cartridges I installed today my plan is after the 1st DI registers 1-TDS, will wait for 1/2 of the color to change in the 2nd DI and then replace both. We’ll see if it can make it to 6-months like the Spectrapure. I make about 65-gallons of RODI per month.

Picked up a neat little top down thing for pictures. Now I don't have to put my phone in the water lol

The cosmic bubblegum is encrusting well too. Hopefully it'll take off soon. The orange blast is going to encrust the whole rock I think sometimes. Took one picture in 5400k before changing to 10k so I left it in.

What did you get for the pics?

What did you get for the pics?

I was wondering the same thing. A viewing box maybe?
My orange blast is the opposite. Very hairy and mostly greenish. I’d rather have that orange! Mine also has super thin branches even though it’s getting good flow.

They had this at my LFS beside the checkout. So I figured I'd grab it and try it!
