Just curious, but why not use tap water?

Ya, I don't get it, why not tap water? Most freshwater fish do best in most tap waters. I don't see why it needs to be so complicated. Products like RO Right and Equilibrium are usually used in finicky setups such as Discus.

Discus can be kept in tap water as well. You only need RO for breeding. I bred them for 10+ years,they are not as finicky as everyone thinks. The Betta would do just as well in tap.

Ya, I have a friend that breeds them, and only the breeding adults are in RO.
