Science!!!!!!! Anyways... what are you keeping op ? Only the most finnicky sa cichlid are going to need/benefit from rain/ rodi water. Surely using tap is far more convenient/reliable. Nothing wrong with topping off the tank with low tds water, it's actually better. If you're dead set on making your own water than set up a hands off rain collection system, run the collected water through a 10 micron filter and carbon block before storing it aerated barrel. Rain water can be funny.. if you're in an area like Maine or Alaska than go for it.. if you're in a city scape than id opt out. Over thinking a simple tank can be the death of a great idea... or something like that! What are you intending to keep? Ehat size tank?
Ps- If you say African cichlid im going to bite my phone in half..
