As we all know, chlorine is used to treatment of potable water, swimming pool, etc for many years, but it produce by-products which is harmful. now we get a substitute of chlorine, Chloramine-T, a ideal disinfectant for water treatment. it can function in water treatment but produce much less by-products. as the time being, chloramine-T will replace chlorine.
Is tap water dechlonizede?
Reticulated (tap) water is usually chlorinated with either chlorine (gas) or chloramine (liquid). Given time, the gas (chlorine) will evaporate off leaving the water uncontaminated and suitable for fish to live in. The chloramine though needs to be neutralised by the addition of a chemical that can be purchased at pet shops.
If tap water is not good for a goldfish what type of water is?
Tap water is perfectly OK for goldfish. All you need to do is make sure the added chlorine/chloramine is either chemically removed using a chemical additive available at petshops or if your water provider does not use chloramine all you need to do is let the water stand in a bucket for a few hours or overnight and the chlorine will evaporate off.
You put tap water in my Betta's water do i have to put a chemical in there?
It's a bit late now to ask, after you have added the water. Both Chlorine and Chloramine are deadly to fish (it burns their gills). If your water supplier adds chloramine, then you should add some conditioner anyway. If they use chlorine (which is a gas) it will have evaporated off by now, so there's no need to worry.
Fish tank chemicals?
Adding chemicals to a fishes water is like adding chemicals to your air. No one likes chemical muck in their air and fish don't like chemical muck in their water either. The ONLY chemical I believe should be used is the one that is added to neutralise Chloramine in tap water. If the water supplier does not add Chloramine then there should be no need to add chemicals. If a fish is seriously ill and I KNOW what to add to fix the illness I will do so but the best medicine for most fish problems is a few large water changes with good clean water.

Can you add nutreints to disstiled water to make it suit able to keep a betta fish in?
It can be done but it is a very very hard and complicated process to make distilled water into water that will support aquatic life successfully. I only know of one person who can do it and he is a fully qualified chemist. Your Betta would be much better off in tap water provided you make sure any chlorine and/or chloramine have been removed. Pet shops carry chloramine remover. Chlorine is a gas and will evaporate off from the water if you keep it a few hours in a bucket.
What is the chemical formula for chloramine?
