Is this water safe for fish............ Its from the grocery store.... It is called "Refreshe Spring Water" and is microfiltered and ozonated.
This water will be added to my friend's new fish tank. She already had the fishtank halfway filled with water thats been filtering for 3 days. She doesn't have any fish tank water dectectors as of now (her husband just got the tank last week and the fish yesterday) We just want to make sure this water is safe to add to the tank to fill it up all the way for the fish
As long as it is NOT reverse Osmosis purified it should be fine. Do know that you have to add a little salt to the tank though. Even fresh water fish need some salt. Ask the fish store how much you should add for the size tank you have.
I always use regular tap water and use a water conditioner like Stress Coat. It neutralizes the chlorine and provides scale conditioner to help with fish stress. We have had our tank for 7 years and we don't have many fish each year to die. Once you set up the tank where the "good bacteria" will take care of the bad bacteria, the tank will basically take care of itself with out having to clean it much at all.
The water you asked about will probably be fine as long as you use a water conditioner, just in case it has a chlorine based ingredient.
Spring water is best for fish.
Do NOT use reverse osmosis filtered water or distilled water or fish will surely die.
I have worked in the water industry for 15 years.
Yes, any water that is not tap water, (out of a bottle) is most likely safe for fish. Also, add special fish conditioner to the water. About one drop, you can find this conditioner at Petco or any place relative.
