"RichToyBox" wrote in message ... The canisters scare me. I have had two members of our watergarden club have the filters fail and kill fish. If you are going to use them, then you really need a chlorine test kit and check the outflow frequently to see when it is full and stops working. In one case, it was like it started in reverse. The water coming out of the filter had a higher chlorine level than the water going into the filter. It read as high safe for a swimming pool. -- RichToyBox http://www.geocities.com/richtoybox/pondintro.html "Jim Beasley" wrote in message news:bykAe.145019$_o.118469@attbi_s71... I bought one of those filters that use a cannister filter-the kind you mount under the kitchen sink. Got 1 at Wally World for 27 bucks, with the chlorine cartridge, added a couple parts to adapt to hose, and a valve, and a shower head (just in case). About 36 bucks, but replacement cartridges are only 7 bucks. Made a stand for it, works great! Also use for Mama's "sensitive" plants. "Mickey" wrote in message ... I have a 3000 gallon pond that I normally top off using my well water. The house is on city water, the well pump quit after 17 years and it is getting replaced. I need to top off the pond with about 200 gallons of water. Anyone else here ever buy a applicator for fertilizer that goes on the end of hose , mix the appropriate amount of water and dechlorinater in the jug and top off there pond? I am doing it as I write this, I actually put twice the required amount of dechlorinator in the jug and put enough for 2500 gallons at the intake of the pump to spread it around. How do other people deal with this when you use city water? |
