Uurgh, filling the tank with a single RO machine, does anyone know how many litres a day (on average - my water pressure is pretty good) the Reef master Evolution will do? Running it 24/7 - tank plus sump is 1000l or thereabouts.

Glad I am going to the UK this week, would have been hell watching this pot boil

 

[ziyaadb]

well my WB RO fills a 120L bucket in less then 12 hours

 

[crispin]

lol, mine does 30l in just over 18 hours. thats water temp for you

 

[ziyaadb]

Yoh Sorry man, My apologies

 

[Ruanqm]

[mnd123]

[Mekaeel]

[mnd123]

[crispin]

woooha

great news, well done.

now to get LR in there and then stuff off to Uk while it cycles out

 

[mnd123]

k - water taking a helluva long time to clear, skimmer in with all 3 OTP's just a little concerned about the amount of flow thru the sump with that Iwaki pump....

 

[inflames]

question for the pressure gurus, as you can see from the below pic, I have a 25mm feed from the MD70 return pump (I think it is 5500l/hr) which then gets converted to 32mm PVC, which has a T-Piece to 20mm for the chiller (with a ball valve) and carries on to another T-Piece of 32mm PVC with 2 ball valves for the 2 return pipes. Do you see any issues with this setup?

Looking great! Where did you geth the ball valves and how much they cost you? Been looking all over an dthe dudes want like R70 to R130 each!
