When I was in L.A. some 4 of 5 years ago and would visit the LFS's I noticed that a lot of them would have these huge water holding tanks filled with something they called "Catalina water." Which I assumed to be seawater from Catalina Island or nearby.

Only thing is I don't think it any harder to keep 30g onhand of Catalina than it would be keeping synthetic onhand, but the nice thing about synthetic is I can make up as much as I want (as long as I have the salt onhand). Fill up my 30g rubbermaid with water, mix in my salt, and away we go... and I hopefully don't have to worry if I'm adding sewage or motor oil or whatever when I use it.
