John,
TDS generally in the 30's.
Use RO for the reef.
Have no idea on a number.
I make my iced tea drink from the tap but we do have a britta pitcher.

We have well water. The minerals turned all the kids plastic cups and bottles red/brown so I hooked the RO up to a drinking water tap at our sink for consumption. So the fish get it and we get it, at least for drinking.

Tap water is 28, and besides the regular faucet I have a filtered one for drinking water. I'm using a 4 stage 100GPD.
Yikes! Mine are just about six months and no where near as bad. I will have to change the DI resin soon.
Thats what I thought .... I will change all 3 this weekend the DI was like 20% done on first day of install just making 60 gallons when I started the tank

I'm at 30 months and still making 0 tds without a di stage. Sediment filter is just starting to turn beige.

That is impressive. If anyone else said that i would call bs. Wait a minute, is this an April fools joke?
I just changed all my filters yesterday, including the membrane and di.
They were exactly 24 months old with 0 tds.
They started turning brown (not nearly as brown as the fellow above) so i cleaned all the housings and changed all the filters.

No joke, just decent well water with somewhat new plumbing.
