   Most of the time tap water treated with water conditioner does the job perfecty. The only time you need to bother with spring water is if you’re water supply is sub par and you can’t trust it.

   Are you just hatching the eggs? You should use distilled water for that, but after they hatch and you start water changes, you can just use tapwater that’s had the chlorine/chloramine removed by a conditioner: http://filebox.vt.edu/c/channum/triops_care.htm
