water in Nanaimo

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

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.
