I was shopping around for a new or used 75 - 90 gallon setup when I realized that I have room for a 120 (wooo hooo!). Anyway, while I'm planning and setting up a budget to make sure I can afford everything, I listed a RO purifier as a must - but, then I realized that I have access to free spring water where I live. I get it in 5 gallon bottles.
Anyway, I'm wondering if I can use this spring water instead of buying a purifier. Can someone give me an idea what I would test this water for - other than chlorine and ammonia - just to see if it is usable? That would save me some cash as far as my initial costs go.
Thanks, guys and gals - I'm averaging 1-2 questions per day, so hopefully someday soon I can give some advice back.
