I know, that's what I was saying though - what if the soap residue keeps building up in your water over time, then one day reaches a toxic level, JUST LIKE Mercury, Lead, PCBs, etc
Is that not why we do water changes? Could the same not be said about ammonia and how it reaches a toxic level over time?
They are cleaned with high-pressure and boiling water
Sure, anything can build up in toxic levels but again - as far as letting it go into your tank why would you WANT TO let it get in there in the 1st place?
Wouldn't prevention be better? I seldom do WCs because I NEED to....I do them to PREVENT toxins from building up.
Do you eat because you're hungry or do you eat to keep from GETTING hungry?
ok, right.....but nothing beneficial about either of them
So if a soap container is cleaned with high pressure water and boiling water do we not end up with the same result? And why do you keep assuming it's getting into your tank after being cleaned? Would you "let jelly filling get into your tank, why would you WANT it in there in the first place?" Seems your being hypocritual about this situation now in the fact that you can wash one thing and have it fish safe while you can't wash the other and have it fish safe. It's amazing the discussion that can be created over a bucket to raise lights eh?
Over this thread you have constably jumped back and fourth between using something on a fish tank as a cleaner (if used on the outside pretty much anything can be used) to making the argument about "dumping a bottle of Mr clean in the tank". Now my initial point was a cleaned container that once contained a detergent or cleaner could be used and be deemed fish safe while you completely manipulated the situation and brought it to the extreme of pouring a container of bleach in your tank where no one once disagreed with that being a bad idea including myself. You can admit whenever you want that you were incorrect in the discussion here that a washed container that once contained bleach is the same as a washed container that once contained jelly filling
Now you are deflecting to avoid the fact you were wrong. I can be a big enough man to admit when I'm wrong but I guess you can't teach old dogs new tricks because sometimes the dogs are just to arrogant to be taught
There's a difference between opinionated discussion and an argument, if you feel you are arguing your not doing so hot
