[quote=Anonymous]We are setting up a freshwater fish tank for my 5yr old son and my main goal is to make sure the poor fish don't die in the first couple weeks. Based on the advice from Congressional Aquarium, we're getting the tank up and running for a couple days before adding the fish. The Aquarium staff said that DC tap water is terrible due to the amonia in it and would kill the fish - is this true and do we really need to use spring or distilled water, as they suggested? I have read elsewhere that the water will be ok once it cycles for a while. Thanks. [/quote]
