    My unit just decided to stop working and I've never had to buy any from anywhere but now I at least need 5 gallons to finish off my water change, I'm in lake worth but can drive.

    Any where sell it?

    Wish I could help you out there but I'm in Miami... :-/

    You should consider investing in an RO/DI unit and some salt to mix your own WC water. :thumbs_up

    Hope everything works out for ya! K+

    So, what happened to your RODI unit? Maybe you could consider fixing it or replacing cartridges to get it working?

    Until you get ur RO/DI back up and running, you can get 1 gallon jugs of walmart drinking water. It's proccessed through reverse osmosis and deionization. I've never tested the TDS but used to use it for my old 24 nano.
