|  Hello
Hello all, I am new to this forum, just found it while looking for some ideas on what to do with the wastewater from the RO/DI unit. I had previouslyhad a very small unit and the water was sent out to water plants. This new unit I have will do 100 gpd and I have been feeling really guilty about the water that is going into the septic tank. Seemed like such a waste. I believe you all have given me a good idea, use it for wash as the unit is in the laundry room.
Anyway, I have a 120 with 30 gallon refugium I have just set up. I actually had a 65 with 20 sump and used water, rock, and sand from it to set this up. I am new to the refugium and of course do not have enough rock et cetera for this new tank, but am not getting in a hurry with anything. I learned that when starting this hobby a number of years ago. My lighting is the new Solaris LED.
I am excited about getting into some of the corals that I was always afraid to try previously. I am not one to be bashful about asking questions, so once I get my bearings here, we just moved on top of all of this, I will be asking lots of questions.
Great site, I can't wait to be able to really investigate it further. |
