Hi,
Just wanted to post in case someone in the area hasn't seen the news. But the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) announced today that the conversion to chloramine as the water treatment disinfection process will begin February 2, 2004.
I have a question - I used to let my water sit out overnight, but recently got the Python which is great. With Chloramine a concern now, can I still use my Python and put water directly into the tank when i do water changes??? Should I add my Amquel or buffer before, during, or after?
Any thoughts on Amquel vs. Jungle Insta-chlor vs. Stress Coat? I have some of all.
Here's from the press release -
Chloraminated water is safe for people and animals to drink, cook with, bathe in, and for all other general uses.Ê As with chlorine, sensitive users such as kidney dialysis patients, fish and amphibian owners and businesses that use highly processed water, need to take precautions before using the water.
Fish owners must neutralize or remove chloramine from water used in aquariums or ponds as it doesn’t dissipate quickly from standing water as chlorine does. Treatment products are readily available at aquarium supply stores.
