Getting back in

Hello, I have been out of the hobby for a few years and i am looking to get back in. Setting up a 30 gallon for now. If anyone in the williamsport area is doing a water change I could use the water. I plan on cycling it anyway but that could help speed up the process(haven't got my Ro/di filter put in yet and it is a slow drip so water is the only hurdle at this point). Also if anyone has a hydrometer or refractometer they want to get rid of let me know.
 
I am just looking to get running so i can get cycling. Sand or rock won't help if i don't have more than a couple gallon of water. Nobody around sells RO water and my filter isn't hooked up yet(need parts) and it is a slow system so i am looking at at least a week or two to fill up my 30 gallon. Not worried about a jump start so much.
 
Don't know about that. Something i will have to look into. Of course i would get back into the hobby right after all the stores around me close down.
 
you could try DCS underground reef in Lock Haven.. I am sure he would help you out .. think hes open wed thru sat
 
Not familiar with it i'll have to check it out. My sister said she thought there was a store that carried saltwater stuff in lock haven but couldn't remember the name.
 
Distilled water 0tds but seriously hook up your r/o
Along with di resin and check tds often if your doing corals.
Tds Meter ~$10 eBay
refractometer ~15-20$ on eBay
Refractometer Calbration fluid ~6-7$
Most of the time you can get bunches of to push to connect fittings at local Lowes and had
