Hello,
Well the chemical and microscope work i've done with lake water was some nasty nasty nasty stuff in there like bacteria/fungus/mold/etc.. Plus you have fertilizers and god knows what else. If you are diving in the florida springs I can assure you that's probably better water quality than the stuff you drink Lakes are bad for having polution from surface run off, sewage dumping from upstream cities and other contaminats like that.
All things considered if it was me I would opt for the tap water, unless i'm diving in the springs then I don't even use a rince tank as it's pointless.
