Osmosis water for the aquarium?

It forms the perfect foundation. Osmosis water is not only used for drinking water treatment, but is also an important part of aquarium keeping.
We explained the functional principle of osmosis to you in another article .

What are the benefits of osmosis water?

What has long been known among fish farmers is becoming increasingly popular among aquarium enthusiasts. Not only does it offer young animals optimal living conditions, it also offers other advantages such as less frequent water changes and less limescale deposits.

Just tap water into the aquarium?

If people can no longer calmly quench their thirst at the tap due to drug residues and microplastics, the water is not ideal for your animals either.
The limits that apply to tap water apply to people, but not to the small aquarium inhabitants.

Only osmosis water in the aquarium?

There is no general answer to this question; it depends on the needs of your residents. This should be decided depending on the stock.
The osmosis water is absolutely pure, so it forms the optimal basis.
You have the option of blending the osmosis water (mixing in tap water) at any time.

Example based on water hardness:

Tap water 20°dH

Osmosis water 0°dH

Desired value 5°dH

This requires around 75% osmosis water and around 25% tap water

The pH value must also be dealt with. Here too you can achieve the desired value by blending.
