Hi folks,
I'm finally getting around to refilling my DI cartridges and want to share the wealth. In fact, I made this purchase planning on sharing it with other reef'ers. (How else could I use a full cubic foot of mixed bed resin).
This is high quality bulk DI resin and is used by many Reef Central users.
As you can tell from the price, I'm not trying to make money on this project - just to make a bulk purchase for friends and to share the cost.
I've packed some 4-pound ziplock packs that are good for four refills. (Ordinarily, DI cartidges sell for $19-20 each). I'm calculating that $5-per-pound would be a fair price (shipping was expensive). Using this bulk resin you can refill your cartridges for $5 a piece.
An important note - you must reverse the tubing on your DI stage when using this type of resin. This will change the water-flow to top down. Once reversed you do not have to change it again if you return to the expensive cartridges.
Why pay more?
Private message me if you are interested.
