Is my water safe for fish?

I live in an area in which the water from the tap is really disgusting and not recommended for people to drink. Most houses here have a filtration system that is separate from their main water tap. I am thinking about setting up an aquarium but don’t know if I should use the water from the tap or go through the REALLY long process of getting the filtered water. I have the AquaSafe stuff that is supposed to make tap water safe by neutralizing chlorine and such, but I also know that some places have safer tap water than others. Is there any way I can know for sure? Thank you in advance!

I understand it’s pretty much just filtered poo, right? What kinds of horrible things make it through to your tap? Chlorine? Bacteria? Fecal particles? Other stuff?

And which of these things do home water filters remove?
How do those things end up in your water?

I am looking for a water filter to put on my sink faucet. Does anyone know what filter is the best for removing chemicals, especially chlorine and flouride?

We are trying to improve the quality of the water we drink and shower/bathe in, specifically removing chlorine. I feel inundated with the choices. The carbon based filter people tell you that RO water is dead and bad water because ALL the minerals are removed. Then you have like ten step carbon filters which seem pretty decent, and in a normal 0 price range. RO’s are usu. 0 and up. And ionic water filters are pricey, but they alkanize the water, and you can choose the water you need, acid, alkanine, etc. for cooking, drinking. One more option is whether to get a whole house filtration system? Does NYS offer free water testing or is it done by municipality?

Mainly I just don’t want to taste the chlorine in tap water, and better tasting coffee. Which type will remove most of the junk, filter system or purifier? Or are other factors more important to consider. Please answer if you can speak from actual knowledge or experience.

I am looking into getting a Brita water filter for my home. I am looking at the kind that attaches to my kitchen faucet. Is there really anything that this can filter out of city water, besides the chlorine? I am just wondering if it will be worth spending the . I do not want to spend it, then find out that the water is already being filtered enough before it reaches my house.

Thank-you for your answers, I just want a second opinion before I go out and spend on a water filter thingy.

Thanks again, Tyler
