Why do I need to Use Reverse Osmosis Water?
Reverse osmosis is the finest filtration known. It allows the removal of particles as small as ions from a solution. The water in our taps is contaminated with all sorts of toxic materials and these substances can be toxic to aquarium fish. Excess nitrates and phosphates can encourage algal growth, and hardness can affect the ease of controlling the pH of the water. If you use R/O water from the start, then you can add back the required amount of minerals and salts for the specific needs of your tank inhabitants.
