Coralife Pure-Flo II Reverse Osmosis Units
Using tap water for nano reef aquariums, or any aquarium for that matter, is a very bad idea. Tap water is full of chemicals and minerals that can be toxic to aquariums, and water needs to be properly filtered before it can be safely used in a nano reef.
Buying purified water from a store such as Wal-Mart can be sufficient for smaller aquariums, but for nano reefs 10 or more gallons in size, it can get annoying and expensive to go to the store all the time to purchase water. Besides, then you have to deal with hauling heavy plastic containers back and forth to your house.
With a Reverse Osmosis unit such as the Coralife Pure-Flo II RO Unit, you can easily make your own purified water right at home. You can make it when you need water and you don't have to go to the store to refill water containers. Additionally, you'll save money in the long run with a reverse osmosis unit.
Reverse osmosis units work by tapping into your normal water supply, and this water is forced through the unit through a series of filters and membranes that scrub the water clean of any impurities. Chemicals such as chlorine, minerals, and microns such as bacteria and viruses are completely removed and the water produced is pure and clear. Up to 99% of hardness, metals, toxins, and impurities are removed from tap water.
The Coralife Pure-Flo II RO Unit is an economical and easy-to-use unit that can hook directly up to a faucet--it doesn't require the purchase of an additional water pump.
