150 G Fresh water tank

[srujan21]

Hello, Finally after a long research i have decided to make a 150 G fresh water Aquarium. Every thing is clear as the articles provided valuable info about aquariums. But now the question is about water, What water should i use ? I have two sources of water, one is Tap water obviously contains chlorine and other is bore water ( underground ) water. This is the only thing left to know about aquariums, How to test ? Change ? Water

Hi and welcome to the forums! Tap water is perfectly fine to use as long as you use a dechlorinator. Most people recommend Seachem Prime. As for water testing you'll want to get yourself the API Master Test Kit -- it runs for around $20-$25 online on sites like Amazon.
