I have dark red water looks like taking a mud bath. My main question is can this problem be fixed at the well? I had a guy come out and he says I need some fancy water system he was at $5,000+. Right now I have a 4.5x10 filter then to a 2.5x10 filter it helps clean the water up but you can still see cloudy water and the filters only last me about 2 weeks. I'm hoping for a way to have clear water and it not cost me a arm and a leg for some fancy system. I have some Pics to add and I had like a $40 water test done (results below) should I save up for one of them $200 test that says they check over 30 things?

pH: 6.7
Iron: 0 ppm
Manganese: 0 ppm
Hardness in PPM: 34 ppm
Hardness in Grains Per Gallon: 2 grains per gallon
Total Dissolved Solids ('TDS'): 47 ppm
Tannin: 0 ppm
