RO water to purchase?

(1/1)

Msuiceman:
Trying to soften the water in a pleco tank in hopes of having a successful spawn. Anybody know of a place that sells RO water for aquariums? Hate to do it, but will give about one more month until I start chasing softness and unfortunately pH.

Marty:
I have an RO unit, how much did you need?

danotaylor:
What about adding some pure peat to your filter and let it happen naturally? You could also try almond leaves or some black water extract...

Msuiceman:
I have catappa leaves, trying it. In a few weeks if nothing then I'm going to try adding 2-3 gallons of RO per weekly water change. Don't want to do too much because I don't want the pH to swing too wildly.

fishies1:
I bring my own 5 gallon bottle to fill at Kroger for my crystal red shrimp.  39 cent per gallon.
