August 26th 2PM Meet w/ Spectrapure for a talk on RO/DI.
Mark you Calendars. Desert Marine Society is sponsoring a talk with Charles Mitsis of Spectrapure. on August 26th at 2:00 PM at Pranksters Too. If your head is not spinning with facts and figures, tips and ideas concerning reverse osmosis and deionization when you leave this one then you were asleep! I will tell you Charles is a very interesting guy and has loads of good information we can all use to better the hobby and even your cup of coffee for that matter, some of their largest customers are coffee shops. He never ceases to amaze me and I have been in water treatment for over 30 years!
Spectrapure has donated some very nice raffle prizes to help DMS including one of their new revolutionary Max Cap cartridges and a new HM Digital TDS meter. We will also have a selection of Kent Reef additives donated by the local Kent Representative thanks to Tropical Treasures as well as other prizes. A list of possible topics includes: 1) RO membranes- how are they rated, are they all the same? What does a 2% rejection rate improvement really buy you? 2) New DI cartridge Developments, how does the reefer benefit? 3) 1-1 recovery RO DI systems for Aquatic use- Myth or Fact? 4) The Myth of ZERO TDS. These are all real firecrackers right now and would be quite educational. Do any of you have anything you would like to hear about? I know Spectrapures line of autotopoff devices and what would best fit my situation is on my list of questions along with membrane flushing and its benefits, real or not? Hope to see you all there!

There seems to be lots of interest in auto topoff systems. Lets make sure we get Charles to tell us about what they have to offer and maybe set up a buy on some of those for those of us who were out of cash on the last buy. They have several different versions including the Litermeter III and I know I need something remote due to my RO/DI being out in my garage and with a 6' arcadia door to go over or around in some way.

AJ,
I think that is a great idea. I would like to do an auto-topoff but the LM3 was overkill. Maybe, he has something cheaper.

They have lots of options here. I think I am interested in the LLC with the remote kit unless I can configure a holding tank of some sort closer to the tank and sump.
|

|

I am looking forward to the ideas and the options.

Another bump - 1 more week!
I am bringing some softie beginner corals to hand out free. I will have a large number of xenia clippings, some kenya tree coral, green star polyps, a purple mushroom, some anthelia, maybe some BSB Zoos (yellowish brown skirt with purplish center and yellowish mouth). It will be first come, first serve on these because I don't know how many of what I will have until I cut it up that morning. See you there.

I will be bringing a selection of frags to the Desert Marine Society, Spectrapure talk on the 26th. Some will be donated to the club for raffle prizes, others will be up for trade or sale.
I will have red digitata, purpledigitata, green staghorn, green millepora, bright red monti, rust red monti, cream w/ purple rim monti, olive green w/purple rim monti, and possibly some bright green and light blue candy corals. I am looking for blues and purples, the reds and greens are taking over my tank. |

Don't forget this Saturday, 2:00 at Pranksters Too. I will try and get there early with the frags so I can give my full attention to Charles and Spectrapure when the time comes.
