    If you can't get one right away, check out which LFS in your area sell RO water. Before I bought one of my own, I bought water. You can get 6 gal. water jugs in the camping dept. at Walmart or Academy. They are very good for hauling water in. For a small tank like yours, using distilled water from HEB or Walmart may be more convenient.

    That's what I was thinking. I think HEB has RO water from Culligan for like $.25/gallon. (What's the difference between RO and distilled?) I have some old 5 gallon bottles that I can put in the machine to get the water, too.

    Check out the water filter sites listed on the sponser page. They all have articles published that explain all about the different types of filtration. It's pretty interesting reading.

    Distilled is deionized and then distilled. They boil it and then condense the steam.
