Hi... New to the Chattanooga area.

[Robink]

Hi, just moved up here and I'm having a hard time finding ro water. Does anyone know where I can buy some till I get a system set up?

There's a few places here in Knoxville, but I'm not sure about Chattanooga.

 

[Robink]

I don't mind driving. I'm just surprised that Petco and Petsmart don't carry it.

I think there is a store in Chatt called Bermuda Triangle.

Where are you located?
Back in the day... when we had well water, I was able to use tap for my freshwater fish, no problems.
Now though, I have city water, and I don't know what they add to the water.

Yikes! No way would I risk a reef tank with tap water....

Distilled water work2!!

 

[Robink]

Thank you got some distilled water from grocery store.

Exactly

 

[CastAway]

It's less expensive for a utility to triple or quadruple the amount of chlorine in our tap water than to make the water safe otherwise, and/or, to risk making people sick. You do not want that in a reef tank @Joshua Hurst.

If you get a water analysis from Dad, please share it on here. [emoji6]

Any chance you can purchase a RODI unit?

Good call, @Rob.D !

Definitely give this a look, they are trying to get meetings in Chattanooga going again!

All the reeferz from the area I've met have been good folks, and they are really trying to get their club fired back up!
