    Or should I just buy the 'Dual Home Reef' system from Air Water & Ice?

    The eBay one comes with a GE Desal 110GPD Membrane and the Air Water & Ice comes with a FilmTec 75GPD membrane, which one would be better?

    Yea, but the airwaterice one is twice as expensive, and they both are pretty much the same thing. Does anyone have experience with either one?

    If not, I'm gonna go with the eBay one, gonna get a TDS meter and see how it goes. Cant go wrong with that kind of price. :)

    Are you able to get RO water from a local pet shop? I am fortunate to get RO water from a local pet shop for free, saving me a couple hundred dollars to get a RO unit... The other thing is is wastes alot of water, from what I hear!
