Can you use too much dechlorinator? For example if I mistakenly added twice the recommended dosage...
Too much dechlorinator?

No, you'd have to add more than that. The chemical is sodium thiosulfate. It's quite harmless and nonreactive. Try a www.google.com search for " sodium-thiosulfate " (with the hyphen).
Twice the dose for chlorine is the recommended dose for chloramine in fact, simply because there are two chlorine atoms joined to the ammonia in chloramine molecules, I understand.

i would agree with wetman mostly...... i doubt in small overdoses you would have any sort of problems, but in larger doses it might cause difficulties of some sort.
not neccessarily because of the dechlorinator either.... alot of dechlorinators have addatives that could build up a bit. i think my favorite "stress-coat" causes some phosphate problems in large doses, say for example..........
