Whats going green? Your ro, tank or both?

I have both my ro and 1000L tank outside for just over a year now and there is not one bit of green on it.

Just scrub it and rinse it every so often.

Slime wtf and some of you wonder why you can`t get good results
Do yourself a favour and get some sterilizer and clean it out then get some new filters

Ah It all makes sense now after having our "friendly argument" on another post

You don't use it enough! Thats why there's a build up of algae
