Here's my question: there are drops that my hubby uses to clean up the tap water that goes into his aquarium. They remove the chlorine and contaminants so the fish stay alive. What do you guys think of adding those drops to regular water and giving that to the 'chids?
You shouldn't need them. Your RO water (if the filters and membrane are working correctly) should contain no chlorine and very very low levels of everything else. It is pretty pure stuff.
