Hummm .. well John ... Speaking of squirts from
a bottle... I'm wondering why you don't
buy a filter instead of using chemicals? ;-)

Nedra

Now I'm confused. What kind of filter
removes chlorine and especially chloramines
from tap water?

I don't have a filter in (or any electricity to)
my in-ground pond (the one with the gadzillion
tadpoles). When I add water I put the hose
at the bottom, keep the water flow very low,
and squirt a SWAG of StressCoat and AmQuel
in the general vicinity of the hose. So far I
haven't killed off any pond inhabitants. ::shrug::

SWAG. Silly wild ass guess.

Since we only have plain clorine around here, I only
worry about when
doing large (20%+) changes.

It is a squirt from a bottle, the bigger the water
change, the bigger
the squirt.
