Hello
I have been cycling my new tank for about 4 weeks. For the first little while I plan to get my RO/DI water from my LFS. Is it recommended to test the ammonia, nitrite, ph and nitrate on the RO/DI water? If I am topping up every couple of days should the water be tested before the top off? When I decide to use the RO/DI water for a water change should I do the testing before I add the salt or only after everything is mixed? I am getting some discrepancies on how long RO/DI water is good for in an air tight container, just wondering if someone can clear that up for me. Some information says only a few days well other information says a few weeks.
Thanks for the help
