Look's like I'll be setting up some tanks again with city water. Right now I'm using well water so it don't have to be treated. So I need some help...

I have multiple tank's with many varieties of fish from aro's, to catfish, to chichlids, to etc.etc....... And do not want to use anything that may harm certain fish, or not remove all the the chemicals and remove all heavy metals. All the below listed I can get the around 16oz. that treats 960gallons and also buy larger containers that will treat more. Also all the below state that they remove both chlorine and cloramines,as well as other stuff.

Right now as far as price and quantity go, I was thinking of...in no certain order......
First step Tap water conditioner
Doctors Foster and Smith Neutralize
NovAqua+ Plus Instant Conditioner
Doctors Foster and Smith Stabilize
AquaSafe with BioExtract
Ammo Lock
Prime
Ammonia Detox
AmQuel+ Plus
Stress Coat???(Dosen't say anything about removing, chloramine)

Thank you, I just want the best for my fish and make sure that I won't run into problems down the road....
 
They're all the same. I've used many different brands with no discernable differences. Same goes for plant additives which people also seem to be brand loyal to. I buy what's cheapest a.k.a whatever is on sale or in bulk.
 
i have city water and i dont put anything in it never had a fish die from bad water
just my opinion though

Prime is 5 times as potent as all the others. Where all the other brands are 5mL per 10 gallons, prime is 5mL per 50 gallons.
 
Thank's guys anybody else?
