Jan,
I didn't know that you could get dechlor in powdered form. What is it
called?
Jim
Chloram-X (dechlor with ammonia binder) is powder, but the dechlor I've
been using is small crystals, like big sugar granules. For the life of me I
can't remember the chemical name.
Kurt, your cartridge cost $30/year?! 5 lbs of dechlor costs about the same
w/shipping and last my 1500 pond (water change weekly) and 1000 lily pond
(water change bi-monthly), 6 aquariums plus various small stock tanks and
pools outside 5-7 years. I've purchased 2, 5 lbs containers since 1995 and
I still have a pound left. It has been going faster since water change
suggestions were increased on the koi pond. ;-) ~ jan
