Auto water changes question

[Bastián]

Hello everybody,

I've watched Cory's video on the automatic water change system and there's one thing I can't figure out. There's a filter that the water goes through to remove chlorine and other polluants but doesn't it also remove Hydrogen ions and minerals making pure water ? How can it go directly to the aquariums if this water has no buffer or minerals ? Are they added in another way ? 

Thank you for any answers

I believe you're confusing an RO/DI unit with what I use, which is a carbon block filter, to just remove chlorine and other low level contaminants.

I would love an auto water change system. However, this is a bit tooo much work for the Livingroom tank.

I'd love to set something up, but I feel like that's something you're going to need to build for from the beginning.  Gotta have a place for that water to go, and a lot of homes are just not suited installing the needed drains after the fact.
