Success! Used Python Tank Cleaning & Filling System!

[wendyngd]

I've been trying to decide to get this or not and finally did! It went very smoothly--even just for our 10 gallon tank for our mollies! My back didn't hurt like it usually did with the bucket method and my husband says he's delighted not to have the taste of fishy water in his mouth!

Thanks to all who gave me support and their own experiences to help me decide.

How do you dechlorinate the water going back in?

Maybe our Bettas are cousins! I add the dechlorinator into the water stream as I refill the tank. Some say they even add to the tank first.

LoL they'd be very long distance cousins!

How do you know how much dechlorinator to add? Just curious, I use the bucket method and lug them over to the tank from the sink.

I've heard/read that they wast a lot of water so I don't think I'd be able to use one anyway given the high level water restrictions we're on at the moment.
