Is This The Same As Ro Water?

[VictorMeldrew]

When i had my freshwater tanks, to make tap water good to use i used to run the tap really fast to create lots of bubbles and fill up a big bucket or two and leave the water to stand over night to release lots of the clourine. Would this method be the same as using ro water when water changing saltwater tanks

Thanks

not even close, you basically just made de-chorlinized water, which is still far from being pure.

RO water is when your removing all the hard minerals and the chemicals put into the water supply by the city.... basically, in it's purest form, only the H2O is left... in your method, all the hard minerals and chemicals still persist in the water
