Brute Container

[SSalty]

For those of you who are using a Brute container for water changes, make sure you clean it frequently with vinager and water (which I haven't been doing up until now). Yesterday when I was getting ready for a water change, as I was putting my R.O water into the Brute container I checked the TDS while the water was in the container, it read 45ppm (which is high) than I checked the TDS of my water directly from the R.O unit and it read 7ppm. I was stumped. Than I cleaned out my Brute container with vinager and water and than checked the TDS again and it read the same.

Just a heads up for those using a Brute container for water changes.:Cheers:

Im sure that would go for any container. Residue from previous water changes could stick to the sides of the container.

That is a habit we should all get into.

Sounds good, everyone needs to check in a week from now stating that they cleaned their brute container:bounce:

i will be cleaning all my containers for sure next time. I cleaned with water last time, but I think ill have to go the extra mile with the vinegar for the next one.
