Disinfectant
Not confirmed
We couldn't confirm how your water is disinfected. US utilities use chlorine or chloramine, and chloramine doesn't gas off when water sits out.
Safety for fish and shrimp
Nitrate (NO₃)
1–1.8 ppm (Low)
Typical 1.2 ppm
Low, so water changes lower your tank's nitrate well.
From California Water Board lab results, measured before treatment (2023–2025).
Copper at home taps
Up to 0.05 ppm (Low)
Typical 0.05 ppm
Low. Water that sits in household pipes overnight can carry more than this.
From California Water Board lab results (2023–2024).
Water chemistry
General hardness
50–63 ppm
Typical 57 ppm
Soft. Good for tetras, rasboras and most shrimp. Livebearers, snails and African cichlids prefer harder water.

Carbonate hardness (alkalinity)
63–78 ppm
Typical 70 ppm
Moderate buffering. pH should stay fairly steady.
From California Water Board lab results, measured before treatment (2024–2025).
pH

Total dissolved solids
100–150 ppm
Typical 130 ppm
