I used tap water to fill up my tank the first time, and I got a major algae bloom. Started using RO, and the algae problem subsided.
I found a copy of the city's water report. So I would like to know: is my tap water sufficient for a FOWLR tank? I wouldn't mind having an RO system as a new toy , but if I don't really need it, I won't buy one.
NO3 avg 15 ppm range 0-29 ppm
Tot Alk (CaCO3) avg 109 ppm range 70-178 ppm
Ph avg 8 range 7.3-8.3
There were other categories, but they didn't seem relevant for fish.
