Kansas Couple, using your freshwater tank will require a lot more antifreeze. Plus any water still in the tank (you can't get them completely empty) will dilute the antifreeze you put in.
If your phone has pic capability use it to take a pic of the hose coupler, lay a yardstick or tape measure across the end that screws on. Make a trip to the hardware store and match it with enough hose that you can place it down into the antifreeze jug.
My water pump is under the kitchen sink and I keep this hose tucked between the drain pipe and wall so it's always handy. I can do my entire system with 1 gallon of antifreeze. Never had a problem with a frozen line or bad pump and it's been COLD, once or twice in the last 30 plus years.
Check behind the water heater for a bypass system as trying to fill the water heater will use to much antifreeze also.
