Well according to a few on RC, this should be fine as RO/DI filters are meant to filter out all the crap.. I may just have to replace filters more often than usual. Oh well... as long as I have a spot to use for RO/DI water I am happy. I can't wait to get some water changes going... get that tap water out and the RO/DI in. Hopefully my SPS show improvement.

Yes.. The RO/DI will filter everything out.

What are you going to do in the winter? Why not split your water supply to the washing machine with a Y-adapter with valves, and have a year-round solution.

hahah... good call man, that didn't even cross my mind. I guess I'll have no choice. Until then, I'm content with doing this outside for now.
