If you can aford the ro water dont change now.
Tap water is way to hard for salt water tanks.
if you start puting tap water in youll start to see how bad it is in only a few weeks. greg x

Make a small investment and buy a tap water purifier that is designed to make water aquarium safe.

have them for the low!

When you get on the site look under water purification and you’ll see what you can use to help better your water conditions. makaveli440

I will pretend that You ignore everything about fish tanks.

let the tap water rest for more than 24 hours before use it.
use chlorine remover.
test for the presence of copper (might kill the snail)
do not worry about nitrites and nitrates since they are benefice

add the water in small portions and wide intervals of time,to avoid a suddenly change of temperature in Your tank. john m

i would think to go to city hall or public works or something and see if theres nitrates or copper in the water.. if there are i wouldn’t use it

also your volitan lion will eventually outgrow your tank and eat those other fish.. just FYI BIGgourami
