I use a filter system called PUR. I got it at Costco.
Just wondering what kind of water other rhac owners use:
TAP WATER
BOTTELED WATER
FILTERED WATER

If anyone uses tap water, be sure to call your local water company to see if they add chloramine to the water as well. When get your water dechlorinator... be sure it says "Chlorine and Chloramine".

We have a well so I just use tap. (No chlorine or chemicals are added to the well.)

what does letting it sit do to help take out the chlorine and stuff? it sounds easier

letting it sit takes away the harmful chemicals like chlorine (i think ammonia also) however i've been told that it doesnt take away chloramines and i've been told it does take away chloramines.

I use filtered water. I spray with filter water and love it as it doesn't stain the glass either. (no water marks)
I have what is called an Ro system.

I just use tap water, heck I cook with it, drink it and I am fine and my animals are all fine but it does sit in a jug for a day or so before I actually use it. But for some of my amphibian buddies they get special water. :wink:
