I bought from www.airwaterice.com Products and answers for your water treatment needs. and I am really happy with the reef unit. I installed it under the sink instead of a top off but I run the RO/DI water into a 5 gallon bucket and it has a 3 gallon storage tank for RO water which we use to drink and water the parrots with. Works great and was a good price at like 225.00

I bought the MightyMite from airwaterice & am very pleased with it. Costs $99 & would probably work for your needs. They have great customer service.
