I'm not sure what ro water is if it is tap water you can add aquasafe to eliminate all clorine and amonia in the water I'm not sure if this will help, but I hope it does.

I understand you can mix some of your normal tap water back into it, i did see a post that suggested a couple of products - try a search for RO wthin the forum

What fish are you keeping that require RO?

>>> not sure what ro water is

RO = Reverse Osmosis - a water demineralising technique using osmotic membranes.

Kent make something to add to the water to replace the removed (beneficial minerals) - can't recall it's name off the top of my head.

You could add 20% tap water back in plus a touch of dechlorinator.

Remember to aerate RO water to help the pH return to 7 before use too.
