jean9910 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 im going to have a 2 gal tank so I was wondering what the average cost for RO/Di water from a lfs would cost..? because a system well the one I was looking at is like 200-300$ thats Big bucks. one day for sure because im all about doing things myself at home and setting everything up nicely and practicaly but I want to know because i need to do a 10% water change a week. second question is Can I store RO/DI water? if I buy 5 gals could I like put it in a big bucket with maybe a power head? Thank you! Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 The LFSs around me sell it for anywhere from 49 cents a gallon to a dollar a gallon. As for storing it, just get a water tight food grade plastic jug and keep it in there, no powerhead or anything. Link to comment
reefone Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 10% of 2g a week is like what a cup full.lol. you might be better off just buying a gallon of pre mix saltwater from a reputable lfs. Link to comment
MeepNand Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I would not trust premix. It often has a low salinity or is lacking in magnesium or calcium or alk. Link to comment
kveekx Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 It is round 40 cents a gallon near me for rodi. +1 mix your own Link to comment
