Hi can anyone give me some ideas on how is the tap water here in North Nanaimo? I’m thinking to use it for my fresh water tank.

Cheers :biggrin:

Tastes fine to me! And what's a "fresh water" tank? hahaha

Seriously, I don't think you should ever use tap water for a tank. If you do, get something to illiminate the chlorine, etc. But better just ot use RO/DI in the first place probably.

If your going to use RO/DI in a FW tank you may want to consider using something like.
Kent's Fresh water essentials.

Especially if your tank will be planted.
