Thanks for the info!  I have been lurking on this list for a
month or so but had to speak up after your post.  I currently
have a 29 gallon plastic plant tank (hanging head in shame) but
will be setting up a larger planted tank in 6 months or so.  I
am currently using the TWP and was disappointed with cartridge
lifetime when used on my hard tap water.  I just spent my first
cartridge and I only got 30 gallons of DI water from it.  I was
considering scraping the unit for a RO unit when I set up the
larger plant tank but think I will re-read the articles below
once or twice and give recharging a try.

Thanks again. :-)
