help!
I'm in desperate need of water, this past sunday i had a tank leak, which took away five gallons of water, I had two gallons extra, but now i'm out, and petland has NO WATER! There's no where else nearby! One of my prized corals is slighty out of the water, please does anyone have a gallon or two of salt or fresh water?

I'm probably going to get clobbered for saying this,... I seem to think you have a 75, if you are really in need the faucet is not THAT bad. A few gallons will not cause a serious algae outbreak. Wal-Mart also has RO Water. 33 cents per gallon. Hope it helps and good luck....

Just make sure you buy distilled water and not spring water which contains minerals that u don't want in your tank.
I do agree that tap water isn't gonna kill anything... better than having corals outta water.

I've used this one before in times of emergency. 25 cents a gallon isn't bad!

SOunds like there are a lot of other ways to get this water, but if you wanted to drive to cumming you can have all the water you need. I have about 100gal sitting around.

Ross, I have 100G available. I live in Canton. I know most Aquatic Stores sell RO/DI and Pre-made Saltwater. Is there someone closer to you.
Have you fixed the leak.
