I learned something at the frag swap today. The RO water I've been buying from the glacier water machine at my local grocery store measured a TDS of 1348!!! I now have aclearer idea of why my tank hasn't been looking so hot. Duh. Terry

That's insane! My tap water (Davis) was in the 800's to 900's range, and I thought that was insane! Are you sure the water TDS was really 1348? Just curious.

Pam tested the sample herself. It's crazy. I sent you a pm about the frag pickup plans. Terry
