I am setting up a 20 gallon QT and needed some RO/DI water. Instead of running my own Spectrapure RO/DI unit at miserable and (s)low 40 PSI I got 10 gallons of water from Ellis Aquatics. I measured the water with a TDS meter (yes, I am THAT guy) and let me tell you, the store has the cleanest water I've purchased from LFS by far. TDS reading was 0 at the lowest and 01 highest. Couple of other stores I bought water from TDS reading is usually between 15 and 20 PPM.

So next time you need cleanest water for your reef tank you know of at least one store that has clean water. Here are two pics, the first one with 0 TDS is crappy.

 
I never even bother to test it lol glad to know. And he sells it very cheap 5g for $1...

I just started testing the TDS on the RO/DI I get from my LFS.. I found out that I've been using ~15 TDS this whole time. I just said screw it and bought myself a RO/DI unit. Hurray for 0 TDS and no 15 minute drives for water!
 
When I used to buy RO/DI, there's was LFS in Fountain Valley that was selling RO/DI water with 85 TDS. Hopefully they changed out a few things since then.
