The Dangers of Tap Water

[Josh23]

Well the acticle goes on to say that chlorine will not disapate overnight if at all. They did however recomend that water sit for at least 48 hours before adding it to your tank. They also talked about choramine (sorry not sure on the spelling) which is used in Calgary water. The auther went on to say that this can lead to kidney or liver failure in fish (dont quote me on which organ it was) He also mentioned that chloramine can not be removed from the water by letting it sit. In fact boiling it would only lead to 50% removal of the chemical. In short it was recomended that if you are going to use tap water you should be adding a conditioner to remove the chemicals.
