$1 a gallon in New Jersey

The place I went to today was $0.75 a gallon. If I got that 65 gallon tank that means about 50 bucks to fill it up all the way and then $5 for every 10% water change. If I bought all 65 gallons to start and then did a 10% water change every week it would take a year to break even on an RO/DI system from Bulk Reef Supply, but that doesn't count the cost of the water I use at home for the RO/DI system in terms of my water bill, as well as replacing the filters and membranes in the RO/DI unit. Nor does it factor in gas used to get to the LFS.

All really depends on if I can find an LFS in Houston that is close and charges a good price for their water. Like you it would be nice to have an excuse to go in all the time.

Do you have to keep your green star polyps under control or do they behave on your own? Have heard stories of them taking over tanks and being more of a nuisance. Which is a shame because they might be my favorite soft coral.
