Sean where is the best/ cheapest place to buy an RO unit for a 250L tank
Dunno anywhere close to you, but MARCO - The Waterboy- he is the man you need to speak to. Drop him a pm or go to the sponsors forum and leave him a message under his Forum

this should be the 'goto' thread which must be read by all potential reefers! proof of having read/studied all links should be produced before being allowed to contemplate setting up a tank!!

p.s.. on budgetary items, before u buy anything... put a few thousand in the prepaid e meter!!!

i don't think this comment will fit into the 'advice' column.. more the 'opinion'...

... know what u want before accepting what the lps has in stock (no offence to the lps sponsors).

Lol, not trying to offend you guys, but here, LPS means Large Polyp Stoney corals. I suppose you are referring to LFS, Local Fish store

Awesome info, it really daunting reading through all this info especially being a serious noob, I find it very helpful to go speak to a specialist shop, but i find most of them wanting to cram stock down your mouth. Are there any Preffered LFS in Cape Town???
