reverse osmosis, it gets rid of everything, chlorine, phosphates, makes the TDS (total dissolved solids) 0 but conditioned tap water will work fine and yes they can live 15 mins. just take them out if they start gasping

Hey Jenn, did you check your pH? If your pH is low this can stress the hek out of them as well. I ran into a problem with pH a couple months back and every fish died...
Whatever you do don't put them into pails. It will only make things worst by stressing them out and thus causing more ick. Did the emperor die? Last edited by RIPTANK; 04-10-2010 at 07:28 AM.
