distilled water vs RO water

jaleinwa · January 31st, 2008

I mix RO and tap water in my Discus tank. Can I use distilled in place of the RO water I get from the pet shop? It's just more convenient to go to local grocery and get a gallon of the distilled. Any advice or suggestions. Thanks in advance!

should be fine - usually the pet store sells it cheaper per gallon, but if you're looking for convenient, distilled should be fine.
