What do you use for QT and ATO?

Sure, I could save water by not flushing it for 20/30 seconds"¦. But considering how much water is wasted anyway in the process of making RO in the grand scheme this really doesn't make a huge difference.

Some RO systems (very few) produce on a 1:1 ratio but most are a lot worse maybe a 4:1. Even with very efficient systems you are still wasting the same amount of what you produce.

My RO Top Off runs on average 4 times a day so each 30 second flush uses .026 gallons each time. I live in Florida... It rains a lot here. So I can live with it. :beer:

One thing that never caught on and I wonder why, was the stand alone DI chambers. No RO, No wastewater, just slowly push tap through filters and the end result is 0 TDS.

Maybe it was to cost of anion and cation, or the process in which you had to recharge them... hmm.

Here in AZ water in a commodity, i try to conserve what I can.
 
Oh and what does TTM stand for?


TTM = Tank Transfer Method


Think 2 small tangs like a yellow and tomini would still be viable in a 5 gallon bucket?

I would do them one at a time, just because of how they act when in confined spaces.



I have had several buckets going at the same time. I blame my wife who would rather have fish then corals. TTM buckets don't have to be elaborate, I use 2 small PVC elbows for hiding, a bubble wand, and a preset 20G heater, thats it. I have several sets and a couple spare air pumps. As long as your equipment has had a full 24H to completely dry between transfers, your fine.

Just put them together in QT after TTM then sounds like a good plan.
