Hey everyone!

Long time reefer here that recently relocated to NYC. I have been planning a new nano setup for my (small, walk-up) apartment. How do most people source water for tanks? I used to purchase all of my water from my LFS and transport it home for initial setup and water changes. I’m not very familiar with at-home RODI setups. Any other options here?

Thanks!

rodi with a sink adapter, its pretty straight forward and overall way cheaper, you can buy a rodi unit used from a tank breakdown for a fraction of the cost, the resin/ cartridges can be brought off amazon or mosreef.

If it is just a nano you could either buy distilled water or order RODI from a local aquarium maintenance service. I use Manhattan Aquariums to deliver some RODI and premixed saltwater when I need it. Not the most cost effective thing obviously but it eliminates the need to run RODI on your own.
