Hey MFKers
I've been keeping fish now for around about 3 years, I've only ever kept FW fish and plan to keep it that way.....for now. Anyway over my time I've spoken to alot of other FW keepers. This also means I've heard countless conflicting opinions as you'd expect. But the one thing that seems to come to my attention is people who never use dechlorinator yet have perfetely healthy fish (or so it'd seem) I've always used dechlorinator but ran out and can't get to the store till the weekend, the tanks arn't in despirate need of a clean I just like to do it once a week on wednesdays.
One chap I spoke to has a Python system (I think its called) he just opens a switch lets out 50% of the water and then fills it back up with cold tap water, he has 3 adult Oscars, 2 Fire eels, pelcs and some other stuff. he's had the stock for years all looks in fantastic condition.
so who are the MFKers that do use dechlorinator and who are those that don't. And if you do use it would you ever consider stopping?
