Default W/C Fluid?

Okay, I have everything set up for my water cooling system to just about be fired up for the first time ever! Now that I notice it, I only have 12 ounces of Thermaltake coolant, and I have a water wetter (its a pinkish color...I'm sure you guys know what I'm talking about). Since I know I didn't have enough fluid I went out to the local grocery store and got 1 gallon of distilled water. Now, should I mix all three togehter? If I mix them all together will the color come out wierd because of the green thermaltake coolant and the pinkish water wetter. Or should I not mix anything and just go all out distilled water and water wetter?

Please help!

Josh

got any antifreeze out in the garage, 6 ounces per gallon if it is straight, 12 if it is the 50/50 mix, It will be ok to run just the water for a short time if you need to, I just read the water wetter stinks (smells bad)
