@wasmewasntit so I’m looking at this bottled water and I’ve been checking the hardness and the ph - any idea which would be best or if any need to be avoided as attached
My fish live in the following parameters according to seriously fish
pH 6.5-7.5
Hardness 90-268ppm
I was thinking Buxton?
That's correct...way, way less than your tap water.
Okay I will stick to one brand thanks for the heads up ! ⭐️

Thanks again for your help 😊

I don’t think I would want anything living in that water the hardness is just ridiculous!!! Imagine if I was topping off with tap water as well it would be basically liquid rock!! Like you said they would be ok but it’s still even too hard for them isn’t it!
Okay thank you for your advice...
