I have question regarding my RODI system.
Please have a look at the attached image.
My fellow reefer sent me this image showing RODI (with pressure tank) set up diagram.

My concern is from looking at this picture I found out that pressure tank is only used for RO water.
My Dual RODI uses pressure tank for both RO and RODI from the stored RO water in the pressure tank, then splitted to either RO faucet or DI cartrige for RODI water.
I think that in Normal RODI reef system, water pass through the DI cartridge very slowly with small amount of RO water.
I was worried of the water presure is too fast for the DI cartridge to purify.
If this is the problematic then I would use the pressure tank just for the drinking water. (IS check valve neccessary?)
I have algae problem in my reef tank and think this might be the cause.
Please let me know.
