Wishing I had $2149.99!!!!

Sort of what we come to expect from big companies like Marineland in relation to reefkeeping. Bunch of idiots just coming up with things hoping to dupe uneducated customers.

No wonder they are going bankrupt.

With the Dialyseas, I just pour the salt of my choice into a brine bucket. The machine changes water at a rate that I set. It monitors the water salinity with a conductivity meter and adjusts it accordingly. No mixing, no checking specific gravity or temperature, no draining or dumping water.

Very nice...

This is killing me....:lol::lol: "Activate master switch".... they're really selling this one!:lol: :lol: :lol:

But it is sooooo much more fun to pour the salt into one compartment (after measuring it out YOURSELF) then "Activating the master switch" and watching it dump it into the mixing tank!

Why do it in one step, when you can spend $2499.00 and do it in two steps!!!

Ha ha ha :lol: :rollface:

I thought you were going to say the Clarion was on sale, LOL..

 

[Sisterlimonpot]

Any thing that cost more than my entire tank set up is way too much money

 

[Whys]

Give it time.

Mine only holds 55 gallons, but it has wheels. It cost me $50.

Of course, this one comes with FREE salt for the 2 grand and that has to be worth something.

 

[Joshsmit56001]

After a little more research on this I think it is clear that this is not worth the money!

 

[Whys]

What gave it away?

Ha ha ha :lol: :rollface:

Hilarious! Why not throw in a third step? After you've "activated the master switch" you can pull out your trusty hydrometer, test salinity, open the "master valve", and dispense..... sounds pretty technical:rollface:

Whys, you're a card!

was it the $2000 price tag or this thread that enlightened you?

 

[Whys]

^^^ Me or the original poster? If it's me, then the answer is Zen. If it's the OP, then the answer is still Zen. The answer is always Zen. Zen is the answer.

By the way, Zen says it's okay if you don't give a rats behind about the answer. :]

$2149.99 and they want you to buy your own RO unit thats complete BS...
