No tapwater is treated by the city at municipal plants, well water is just that...water from a natural spring in a well.

 

[kmc150]

so should i treat the well water or not

 

[dadecountyalan]

you always should just in case. prime all the way.

what fish do you have

Test the water for current levels before adding any unnecessary chemicals.

ok thanks

If it is untreated well water why would you add Prime???

If this is your own private well, straight from the ground, your good to go as it is.... no water conditioner.

It's just as important to check well water as it is tap water. No, there isn't any intentional additives, but well water always has the risk of run off, leaching, high mineral content, etc.
