Oh, also, one thing I remembered here:

My RO/DI water output is giving me TDS of "1".

Is that OK to add this water in the tank?

If not, what specifically should I replace in my RO/DI system?

I do have a 90GPD from Spectrapure. Standard model.

Again, thanks for all your feedback!

Should be zero. But 1 isn't bad. But I normally change ny carbon every six months but I have 600 gallon system

Yup... At very beginning it was zero, and I bought the unit in October with no media changes yet.

What do you recommend me to change? Everything or it depends?

Carbon every 6 months it's cheap like 7 bucks each. Sediment filter you can do less but look at it. Di I do once a year

OK!

I'll start with Carbon... I bought the extra media, I was just wondering what to change in first, or change everything at same time.

Appreciate your comment.

It seems we have it back on the track...

That may be something related to excreting something or even reproduction??

Anyways, thank you all for your help!!

If you indeed have an Aquamaxx Skimmer in play than the cannister filter is totally unnecessary. Get Phosphate/Carbon dual reactor with RowaPhos in place of the cannister filter, RO/DI Water, Weekly water changes of 10-15%, equipment maintenance/cleaning 6x/yr, feeding phosphate free food 4x a week max and controlled lighting you should be fine.

luck

As long as you are keeping up with the maintenance that canister is perfectly fine polishing you're water an running carbon there is slot of folks using them with great success. As far as the smoking analogy to using canister.really ..........
