I have a Lifereef 4 stage 50gpd and my readings were

RO/DI Water
Phosphates ~ 2.0-5.0 ppm
Nitrates ~ 0-5.0 ppm
Ammonia ~ 0 ppm
PH ~ ? low.. (lowest color is a light green, test was yellow, its an old test though, will retest new water tomorrow)

Using API test kits (i hate them, wanting to order all Salifert tests, going to do some research on what tests i should use for what. (any opinions would be nice, or what you use) sure i casn just google it or search the forums but any information i can get ill use. =]

why would the phosphates be so high? replaced cartridges 1 month ago

Carbon, DI resin (color changing) and the other thing, forgot what its called,

MR member who i recieved it from said he changed the Membrane 6-12 months ago.

I havent used it much until recently, all together made about 75 gallons worth of RO/di water with it in 2 months. but only used it for 1 month.
