100 GPD, don't store because it's used as an auto topoff. I will make a rubbermaid trashcan full once in a while for water changes though if you want to call that storage.

I run an RODI unit from Air, Water, & Ice. It was originally a 100gpd unit, but I recently replaced the RO membrane with a 75gpd. I don't use anywhere near 100gpd and the 75gpd membrane is slightly more efficient. I store my freshwater in a 50g rubbermaid tub and then have two 31g rubbermaid tubs that I can use to mix saltwater.

i have the Coralife Pure Flow II 50 gallon per day unit
when i bought it i was under the impression that id get a nice steady jet of water until i figured out the 50 gallons a day = roughly 2 gallons hour i hard plumbed that ******* under the sink so the water come out a special faucet in the kitchen
i store my water in those plastic water cooler jugs you find at the office

Well I have the Watts Primier that we use for drinking water 5 stage but only does 35gpd. When I get may tank going this december I will change out the membrane to the 75gpd and add a DI unit on a spreat line with valve to fill a cantainer. probably not the best but why buy another unit if I already have one right.

125 a day from ebay... seems to be doing a good job so far. I fill up a BRUTE trash can in about 7 hours
