is the water that they sell at publix ok to use for a fish tank? i am talking about the one from the GLACIER water dispenser. it says that it goes through carbon, uv, and RO filtration.

If this is true, then yes. You can always test it before you use it in your tank- Phosphates and TDS, the carbon should have filtered the chlorine down. TinMan

just be sure to check the TDS with a hand held meter, they filter out alot of the junk from tap water...

best to get an RODI unit... if possible
