Testing water, using RO/DI for FW aquariums

What is the best test kit to measure hardness in freshwater?

My wife is interested in setting up a FW tank, and I am going to use my old 55 gallon. She is interested in soft water fish, such as rams. Living in Florida, I assume my tap water is hard. However, I have the RO/DI system for the SW aquarium.

What are the issues with using RO/DI water? Do I need to add minerals to make the water fish ready? If so, what is recommended?
