Default RO Question

Hey guys and dolls!

So as some of you know I got a 125 Gallon Tank the other day. Now with filling it the obvious first choice is with RO water. However I only have about 47 gallons worth of buckets and jugs and no RO unit of my own (PLEASE PLEASE VOTE FOR MY VIDEO! )

So my thought here is this (ugh I feel like such a noob!! ...not that there's anything wrong with that). I have a 20 gallon refugium running on the 72 right now. I should be ok just using tap water and hooking up the fuge, yes? That will export my phosphates and nitrates from the tap water.

Is there something else I should consider? Something else I could try? I just don't want to make THREE trips to the LFS buying and hauling water the entire time...my instinct tells me this plan is fine, but what say you?

And then of course if/when I get an RO unit (PLLEEEEEEEASE vote for me! ) I can drain a bunch of water and replace it...
