    I bought a 125g setup used form a guy in my town. It has an aqua-safe syestems ro/di unit that can b hooked up to the sump to keep the tank at the same level as water evaporates. Well the guy gave me the rodi unit but didnt have the replacement part for to make the cold water nozzle a 3 way,water, ice maker, tank, a 2 way excluding the tank so he couldnt give me some of the parts that I need so I'm having to fill the sump every day as it evaporates which is starting to get old after a few weeks now. Hes a local business owner and really busy and hasent had the time to replace the part. Long story short is there some website I can get these parts I need? I'm not gonna keep bothering the guy every couple of days regardless if he should give it to me or not and I think it would be easier to just buy the parts myself, if able. I saw a website called aquasafecanada.com but it doesnt work anymore. anyone have anything current?

    I think Aquasafe is defunct
    Try Air water and Ice one of 3Reef Sponsors

    Or home Depot will have all the parts you need

    Glad to see you back. Hopefully you will upgrade your reef systems so they are no longer the average run of the mill EBAY quality systems.\
    Reef enthusiasts have no use of GAC carbon filters which break down to dust and foul the membrane or little horizontal DI filters. For the same money or even less you could eliminate the GAC and canister and replace it with a true vertical DI filter and refillable cartridge and maybe supply better quality lower micron prefilters and carbon blocks. All those little horizontal DI's have to cost you almost as much as a real canister and cartridge.

    Maybe you could also tell us what RO membranes you use and publish the manufacturers actual data as far as removal efficiency. Reef enthusiasts are pretty picky about their water quality and what they buy. Myself I would never buy or recommend a system that does not tell me what I am investing in and I know lots of others are the same. We are better informed today then we were a few years ago and don't jump into something blindly.
