Distilling water is really only successful in an industrial setting and most aquarists would find it exceptionally difficult to make themselves.

Yeah pots and pans in the basement with a bunson burner and a bunch of silicon tubing didn't work too great btw I should also add that if buying distilled, you should be on the watch for stuff labeled "distilled" that has fluoride and other stuff i nit...I started seeing it on shelves this summer in the stores; no clue what people would use that stuff for. It says in small letters at the bottom of the label that is has those addatives put back into it.

The grocery stores around me all carry bottles of distilled. I have checked the TDS's on them (total dissolved solids) and all have been zero. There really shouldn't be a problem with good commercially produced distilled water. SH

Why not just get your RO & Salted RO from your LFS - they should only charge a couple of quid per 5g

There are no "proper" marine retailers in Dublin , and those that are there are supplied by fishantics.com , so I'll save myself some money and buy from them .
