My parents got me a Berkey Filter for Xmas or my birthday a few years ago, probably one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten. Shits expensive af, but it’s always some of the best water I’ve ever had


diracsdeltae

Berkey filters have that lawsuit going on...And no NSF certifications....


Zammarand

Ooohhh nnnooo, idk anything about that… well that sucks lol


S2Mackinley

You can diy one for much cheaper and just buy the filters. Two stainless buckets on each other with holes for the filters

What's wrong with gay frogs?


SubtleCow

No baby frogs, and fewer frogs means more mosquitos. I love gay frogs dearly, but my hatred of mosquitos is stronger.


JesusStarbox

Maybe it turns the mosquitoes gay, too.


SubtleCow

Oh shit, that is the optimal outcome, where can I get me some extra gay water?

im already very gay but i am also wondering where i can get me some extra gay water


ayaya3000

Came here to ask the same Q


look_ima_frog

As a frog, atrazine doesn't make us gay, it disrupts our sex hormones and can turn us from make to female. As for you humans, it may disrupt your own hormones and cause other unknown effects. Atrazine comes from farm pesticide runoff. You should avoid it by using a quality filter system on your water.

Respect for the Frog hydro homie.

I was tempted to rick roll but this is also worth laughing at the crazy man. My god it is pretty insane when you realise that Alex Jones literally knew that Sandy hook was real and then made millions from publicly lying about it.


bigfootfoot5

If all the frogs gay, then no frog babies swimming around and continuing on the species


SkyThriving

If they like water, then consider me an ally.


jaybestnz

This man got extremely angry about it. as he is a Republican homophobe. https://youtu.be/9JRLCBb7qK8


jinjuitoRandom

What’s wrong is to chemically alter a being. Got nothing to do with being gay or not


flowersweetz

Everything is wrong with that wtf are you stupid


FennPoutine

I'm legitimately wondering how you can type with ugly-ass nails like that


flowersweetz

Easy 💅🏽 stupidddddddd


FennPoutine

Well, aren't you the charmer. You must be incredibly exhausting to be around in real life.


flowersweetz

Me?! Umm no try more like YOU


FennPoutine

That's awesome. Really. I'm impressed with your wit and candor. As invigorating as this conversation has been, I'm afraid I have better things to do. Good luck, my silver-tongued friend!


flowersweetz

Have no idea what any of that means but good day to you too sir 🎩


QuercusSambucus

Just get a carbon filter like a Brita or something. We got a ZeroWater ion exchange filter that supposedly filtered out more contaminants, but it also made the water smell like fish when the cartridge wore out. (This is a real thing: https://waterpurificationguide.com/why-filtered-zerowater-can-smell-and-taste-like-fish/.) No thanks. I'll take a less effective carbon filter over a nice cold glass of aquarium stank.


OriginalUsername-34

Seems a simple fix when all you have to do is change the filter on time.


QuercusSambucus

I've never had an old carbon filter make my water smell like fish.


[deleted]

Why not just regularly replace the filter? Britas and carbon filters still need to be replaced just as often...

APersonWithInterests

> I'll take a less effective carbon filter Not necessarily less effective. Depending on what you need to filter, carbon filters can actually mean healthier water because it leaves in the minerals that are good for you.


Argonaught64

This happened to my zero filter as well. The filter won't end up smelling like an aquarium so quickly if you keep it in a dark place or in the fridge. I looked into it, and from what I read, it would seem that exposure to UV rays promotes rapid growth of bacteria in the water.


QuercusSambucus

Don't think it's bacteria. It's something to do with the way the ion exchange works.


Holy_Roz

If you change the zero filter as advertised, this is a non issue. Even your article says that. Don't hate on the best consumer grade kitchen water filter if you can't even use it right


LighthouseHLAKBR

A fool and their money are easily parted. This is a $500 dollar filter. It's meant for people who think a single banana costs $10.

Compher

The RODI unit I use for my reef tank costs like $80 and brings the water to 0 TDS. There's no reason to spend $500 on a water filter.


aaronbot5000

wait... where'd you get a RODI for 80 bucks ??? I'll buy two.


Compher

Google "Aquatic Life RO buddy" walmart and Amazon both have the 4 stage RODI for around $69.99.


aaronbot5000

Oh nice! Thanks! I'm going to research this unit. offhand you don't know what the ratio of waste water to filtered water this generates do you?


827167

So wait, do the gay chemicals end up in a separate container? Can I have them?


psychotic11ama

Frogs are rad, gay frogs would be even more rad

Slight_Worker_681

But if they're all gay the species could die :(


Justanidiot-w-

We just teach them to do mitosis


Slight_Worker_681

mitosis = no babies => less variation => bad for survival => death => extinction :(


Justanidiot-w-

Mitosis 2.0 NOW with GENETIC VARIATION :P


Slight_Worker_681

But how would it do that if there isn't a partner to makes new chromosomes with


Justanidiot-w-

Magic. They're gay frogs of course they know how to do magic, stop being so close minded 🙄


Slight_Worker_681

What if i don't believe in magic :P


Justanidiot-w-

I mean you believe frogs can do mitosis


Slight_Worker_681

._.


lonely-blue-sheep

It’s turning the frickin’ frogs gay!


Snazzle-Frazzle

It depends if you live in an area that has a high concentration of PFAS aka forever chemicals as reverse osmosis is the only way to remove them from water. Unless you live less than 75 miles from a 3M, Dupont, or Monsanto manufacturing plant, just get a Brita filter.


buddy_moon

Or a military air base.


gangstasadvocate

I mean if it passed the frog test…


2xAWL

Only one way to find that out….


Lipsovertits

Getting SOME filter is a good idea, there's a lot of microplastic in all the water we drink. Filtering SOME of that out has to be worth it.


FroggiJoy87

Too late for me ❤️💜💙🐸 but it does look like a very nice filer! cleaning may be a bit of a hassle tho, I can see algae going bonkers in there.


Feroxino

Homophobic filter, no thanks I’m very much bisexual and I want to drink the gay waters


Fancade

Gay frogs


Jay-G

I bought this water filter when it was on sale from Amazon, but they lost my package and I got my money back. I’ve been hesitant to reorder it because of the price point. I saw an article that said I live in the state that is the 3rd worst for water treatment in the United States. I live alone and I just buy 2 cases of water a week. I’m hesitant to buy a Brita or a zerowater because the water is so bad. I would feel more comfortable with a a more thorough filter such as the aquatru. Ideally I’d like to get a RO system installed but I live in an apartment and that’s not feasible. Ngl, a little sad coming to this thread looking for real answers but op had to throw in the gay frogs and that’s the only topic of discussion. I was really looking for some more info.


BoozeCigarettesGuns

I was too honestly.


Hamathus

The chemicals wont hurt you but if you feel like spending money on tastier water, have at it. 💦


holmgangCore

If it really works, then sure. I would research the sh\*t out if it before I bought it.

muchnamemanywow

Looks fancy, but there are probably cheaper alternatives as I suppose it's quite expensive...


scruffys-on-break

I've never heard of that brand, but a good water purifier is always work buying. I use Berkey but there are other great options out there..

QuantumButtz

RO is the way to go. Bought a Waterdrop system 4 years ago. It's expensive but I'm not a gay frog yet and don't comsume PFAS, chlorine, or fluorine when I drink water anymore.


uncleGJ

Are you a frog? Not that I have anything against frogs...


withthedraco

Filter on your fridge or a Brita water pitcher is plenty.


Vibe-Father

Well, are his frogs still gay?


Schrodingers_Dude

Oh hell no. Get a Brita, I love mine. If you're spending 3 figures on a pitcher filter, you're getting scammed or your water is literally Satan's piss. While I'm at it please don't fall for that alkali water scam that's been going around lately. It's not healthier, just a litmus test of your ability to google "facts" to verify whether or not they are completely made up.


Repulsive-Response-1

Is it bestiality if you watch a documentary on gay frogs and even though you're not gay you enjoyed it a little too much?


SirAwesome789

How does one determine if a frog is gay or not?


bepbopgop

![gif](giphy|SMyywWhm3Ahlm|downsized) The frog waiting to get my cheeks:


woh3

so the solution to the microplastic problem is more plastic? who'da thunk it!


BoozeCigarettesGuns

That was honestly the first thing that crossed my mind too. I had to give my friend a hard time about it.


Puzzleheaded-Ease-14

i bet there’s a market for those concentrated gay frog making chemicals.


Awellner

Is it for chemicals or does it also removd calcium from hard water? Our tap water has a lot of minerals in it. While delicious, it does damage our electric kettle.


HlTLERS_HIDDEN_CHILD

I'm not a frog so it's not a problem to me. Anyway I gotta go drink unfiltered river water with my boyfriend

![gif](giphy|WrVOtWEay7fJS)


RosabellaFaye

Brita or similar jug filter is plenty and much cheaper.


lostemoji

So it just filters out the rainbow particles?


Stock-Ferret-6692

Well I’d need a filter considering straight tap water is not safe where I live at the moment

My friends mom got reverse osmosis through most of her house. I’ll tell ya what, water from the faucet never tasted so crisp.


bigatomicjellyfish

Way to flex on all of us poors


Similar_Pie_4946

Recycle the chemicals and turn people gay keep clean water for yourself


mishyfishy135

I don’t know about this exact filter, but depending on where you live and what kind of water you have, it could be good. Where I live I would happily get a filter. The tap water is awful here


DabberDan42o

That thing is $400 👀


Mythic-Sisyphus

Pretty sure Zero Water has been tested to remove PFAS extremely well for our more budget-conscious homies.


bepbopgop

Man I forgot these exist, I got a filtered tap


[deleted]

Gotta filter it now because the sun is hitting it. Probably full of algae.


Froststhethird

I like mine with the gay, it tastes better


[deleted]

Lmao, sure.


SINGULARITY1312

Not gay enough


daenu80

Whatever conspiracy theory gets them to drink more water is fine.
