I have a koolance setup, but my question is, can I use simple tap water to refill, or will i require something else.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Tap water = BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD!
Imagine dirty tapwater (bacteria etc.... things you cant notice by taste and look along) living in a warm enviroment.
Bacteria + Warm water = SCUM in your loop.
Use distilled water available from a grocerey store near you. If you can't find distilled water, look harder. All major grocerey stores sell it in the bottled water isle in gallon jugs. Not expensive either
You should also be using some sort of algaecide or water additive mixed in the water in your loop. If you arent, you should. Koolance does supply some additive with the kit if I remember correctly....
