Here's a quick video showing how I set up my RO storage.

the Reverse Osmosis water will erode the BRASS fitting. from the inside out. use a plastic fitting instead. you ever wonder WHY all the Reverse Osmosis parts are made of plastic? now you know.

[@peaceriveraquatics4308]

Best setup I've seen on UA-cam. Great tips. I like the elbow for the water tubing from the pump.

[@kp1260]

This is really smart setup. I like how you have the output at the top. You don't have to worry about any leak this way.

[@JohniBoiiViDz]

Thank you so much! Just bought everything for my plant hydro set up

[@emeryz10]

Just so everybody knows. Heaters melt the plastic in trash cans. So take some SCH40 PVC, drill holes all around it and stick the heater in that. Ask me how I know.

[@AllTheBeef]

how do you know?

[@emeryz10]

@@TGODxRaid I made a mistake. Water went places they shouldn’t go to.

Very nice job on the video.
The way you explain makes it much easier to understand. I hope the payoff comes in a nicely decorated package, with a noice check attached!thanks man!
ou're very

[@richardcummings5808]

Great job. I appreciate how thorough yet concise the procedure's instructions. Thank you very much. PS nice hat! Bike beenies 4 Eva!

[@MrJoeyplatinum]

Drill a 1/8 hole in the brass elbow inside the reservoir......it will prevent siphon .....
When the pump is running it will still push 99% of the water out into your bucket....the hole will leak , but it will be inside the reservoir.

[@richardcummings5808]

If you build a sturdy frame underneath you can just do gravity feed and ditch the pump.

[@austinrebecca]

Thank you. This helped me so much

[@rollerkitbird]

So create a bucket to fill with water to only fill another bucket with water? I use my aquarium as my water storage for my plants. RO water goes directly into the aquarium via auto top off. I then drain my aquarium to hydroponic reservoir via auto water changing system.

[@michaelcroucher1528]

Really neat and help full , thank you for sharing this video.

[@jonasstahl9826]

What is the purpose of the heater and the circulationpump?
The container is inside your house it will have the same temperature as the room.

[@curtis1905]

If you have an aquarium that's warmer, it would be nice not to change the temperature on the fish/plants. No one told you in the video that the heater is necessary.

[@lwquinn64]

Thanks tis was really helpful, your a smart guy

[@stevemiller8239]

Good job! Thanks!

[@jimwhiting12345]

Now that you have clean water, maybe clean the muffin tins and the potato pan? Just saying... Otheriwise, great information.

[@tomykottackal4180]

NICE WORK

[@76honda76]

Well done bro

[@rajadey4919]

How do you do this when you need to do a big water change in a discus tank which requires a RO and Tap water mix ( bcz of high tds in tap water ) and aged in a barrel with heater?

[@ineedmoney299]

Can the water go bad in anyway? What’s the shelf life of the water after you fill the bucket? Thanks!

[@DavidE-tj4rc]

Very late comment/question, but how long will this water stay "fresh"? Will it stagnate?

[@johnnyjga]

what are the benefits of having the circulation pump?

[@holdinweight]

So your RO system doesn't need a tank?

[@leo2o915]

A question on these 32 gallon totes where is the 32 gallon mark at on the tote is it the top line before it reaches the top

[@stuartsmith5274]

Cant these just be attached to the actual tap,so you can just set it up when you need it,I live with parents and they wouldn't want it left

[@nicolekarisny3076]

is brass ok for coral

[@DGC816]

No

[@ineedmoney299]

Hey buddy I’m talking to ya!

[@martinlandaverde403]

I have a quick question,I have a distem with 3 filters and a membrane,but the discharge water is always flowing even when is not producing RO water,is this normal?

[@soheilsaadatamoli6898]

hi . sero solenoid valve is damaged please change it . every thing gone be ok

[@jessikerz25]

How do you clean the trash can reservoir? Mine keeps getting black sludge growing on the 1/2" pump tubing and its happening like less than a month after i clean it with H202. I DONT KEEP NUTES IN IT, JUST PLAIN RO WATER

[@cooloong]

you might need a cleaner outside environment. The sludge/mold comes from the outside air. Or, you might consider installing a spigot + a pressure activated pump instead of just a 1/2" tubing.

[@AllTheBeef]

make sure you're using food-grade materials that prevent growth.

[@BB-br4qh]

Hi does the waste water stop automatically when bin is full?

[@cooloong]

YES, that's why he added the pressure valve to the left side of the 4 RO filters on the wall.

[@arkanghanbari1527]

What does the floting thing do

[@nicholasslaczka1005]

Shuts it off.
