Hello all -

Again I need your advice.

I was in my local pet store talking about anenomes and clownfish and it was suggested that I buy a book called Clownfishes. In this book it said that there was an internet study done on successful anenome keeping and 89% of the anenomes that lived more than 2 years were in tanks that used tap water and suggests that this is the best way to keep anenomes. Now...up until now I have been told that tap water is taboo and that you should use ro water but in this book it says that anenomes need the minerals that are in tap water. I'm a bit reluctant to do this. Can anyone give me any feedback on it?

Thanks so much as usual.
