Any RO unit recommendations?

Hi all,
I'm finally taking the plunge. I have relatively soft well water, TDS around 300 and a somewhat mobile pH. But... I have occasionally performed accidental titrations during water changes and I'm interested in working with some blackwater species, so I'm going in on an RO unit. I don't have a lot of tanks and I'm only going to be using one twenty long for blackwater for now, so I don't need a large output unit. Any suggestions? Any warnings about particular models? Thanks!
Mike

we decided that a ro unit was pointless as we have a tap ph of 6.4 we instead purchased a HMA filter.
removes all the bad things in water but leaves the positive bits and also means ph doesn't have to buffered.

I did the same with a berkey water filter. Although gh and kh are less than 1 degree out of the filter.

I've been using r/o units from Back to Nature Filtration for years. He has a wide variety of capacities and prices. You can check them out at Backtonaturefiltration.org. He also has accessories such as pH meters, etc.

Hi,

just in case you happen to live in Germany (or Netherlands): I have a wildcaught female A. psammophila, you could have it for free. I have no use for it anymore.
