I'm looking more into the Walstad method and planning to get her book as a result of your threads, so these are still worthwhile discussions to have, even if you don't have scores of people symbolically throwing away their declorinators yet.True, but it would be nice if someone would say, Haven't seen that will have a look at it or thanks for showing me something new or it is nice to see a different approach. Or can you explain further, rather than tell me that I am going to do experiments and kill fish. You have no idea what I am about.
It is good and interesting to see different methods. @kwi and @mbsqw1d were clearly interested and looking into it, and @kwi even agreed to set up a tank for testing - just without fish. You have to give credit where credit is due too
And even if people are not sold on it and decide to stick with declorinator, it doesn't mean they're evil company stooges either. Fish keeping is already complex, so something they haven't seen to be harmful that means they can use their tap water immediately and is used widely is likely going to appeal more than needing to set up some elaborate system, unless it has proven benefits. That's pretty understandable.
Added after new post: You haven't been able to explain how 75% water changes are harmful either. You believed it would affect the cycle, when beneficial bacteria don't live in the water column.
