I've heard very good things about "Air, Water & Ice". You can find a link to them on the "3reef sponsors" link on this page.

Aside from that, ebay has tons of deals as well.

An RO/DI system is a must in this hobby. Good luck.

Other then the names on them they are all the same .. on the inside and do the same thing and give the same water. No matter if it cost you 400.00 or 100.00 if they have the same per filter elements and the same GPD R/O then there is nothing different with the output water .. May want to look into the Kold Sterile units no waste and it will not strip out any calcium and or Carbonates .. The smalles t unit gives about 3 GPM and last for about 15,000 to 20,000 Gals. Depending on source water..
