Hi Ross,

I live in the Latrobe Valley, South East Victoria. Our water is the same as Melbourne water. But we did not have flouride in our water until approximately three years ago. I have been keeping Discus fish for 18 years. I noticed no problems with the fish since the introduction of flouride. I use Prime in my water, not RO water. But I do not use Prime for the flouride.

Your fish will be fine with the introduction of flouride.

Regards

Atti

so they will be fine even without adding prime after it's introduced, thats a relief. i didn't wanna have to start forking out for that stuff.
