Water conditioner suggestions..

[tigerbarb88]

Any suggestions as to a cost effective, yet very good water conditioner I could pick up at PetSmart?

I will be picking up some freeze dried worms today so might as well get some water conditioner as well.

Seachem Prime... I'd check their online price too, it's regularly less than they have it at in store- bring a printout just in case.

You'll soon notice that the majority of people here use & recommend Prime...

A personal recommendation of mine is that when you get home & open it, have a friend/spouse/etc. smell it for you to make sure it smells right... my wife still hasn't forgiven me!

I use API's cheap-o dechlorinator. I don't recall the name. I think its just called "tap water conditioner" or "dechlorinator"
Look for something that requires 1ml per gallon. A bottle lasts forever.

Prime is great stuff IF you need something to remove chlorine, ammonia and nitrite. My tanks are cycled and established. Its a waste for me to use Prime. Simply not necessary. All I need is something to remove chlorine. That's it.

PRIME! FTW lol

i dont recommend Amquel + cause you have to use more than they say for it to work

At ~2 drops per gallon, Prime is the most cost-effective dechlorinator I know of

Amquel Plus if you have small tanks. Prime is so concentrated I tend to overdose it.

I use prime, but since I ran out and this other brand was on sale, I currently use

'Aqueon Water Conditioner'.
