You need to buy a chlorine-free bottle, to get rid of the chlorine from the water. Since no fish can live inside chlorine. And chlorine is mixed with tap water.
Unchlorinated water, such as bottled distilled water is best.

No, it is not recommended to put goldfish in distilled water for their aquarium. Goldfish require water with minerals and nutrients for their health and well-being. Distilled water lacks these essential elements and can be harmful to goldfish. It is best to use properly treated tap water or water specifically designed for aquarium use.
The main difference between distilled and bottle water is the ions and minerals found in them. In distilled water, no ions nor minerals can be found while in bottled water such elements are present. The taste is also different due to the ions present (or absent in the case of distilled water) in the water. !!
distilled
Bottled water is not necessarily soft water. Much of the bottled water sold in stores is plain tap water, some is from springs containing various minerals in solution, and some is distilled water.
Yes
The water in my area sometimes tastes odd. What is considered the better choice in terms of pure drinking water? How does bottled spring water compare to distilled water? Whats the difference between the two?
do you mean 'distilled' water in theory or the bottled water with the words 'distilled water' on the bottle? if you mean the real 'distilled' water, then yes. If you mean the bottled water, then no because during processing impurities will be mixed into the water.
Distilled water from you local grocery store or walmart.
ok stick with me here ... I am not sure if they won't live but i thought that before u try ( hopefully you haven't) but we had a fish that wasn't a goldfish and just died today because we put it in distilled water. they die because when water is distilled it removes the two things fish need in water : oxygen and minerals ! hope this helped p.s. rip sushi ( our fish that died today )
Distilled water can be purchased at most grocery stores, pharmacies, home improvement stores, or online retailers. Look for it in the bottled water section, typically labeled as "distilled water" or "purified water." You can also find it in larger containers for use in appliances like steam irons or CPAP machines.
