I reuse the jugs they sell spring water in! I was big time into Bettas and they are very finicky when it comes to water conditions. I made it a habit to test every batch of water the day I mix it up, and then again after 24h.
I am lucky to live in an area where the water from the tap tastes and tests better than what I have available in stores :D (Can't drink the water at the grandparents, because it smells like pool)
There is no fluoride in our water here. I called them when we moved here, because my daughter was taking a fluoride suplement and I did not want to take the chance. (German water has no fluoride added and babies up to one year get a daily dosage prescribed)
When I switch conditioners, I dabble with the dosage till my test kit shows me that everything that has to be gone, is gone.
I just ordered some Amquel and I will pick up the stuff from Petco in the morning! I will try both and see what the crabs like better ^^
Thanks for the help!
