For just over 2 weeks, I've been changing Paki's water once a day. I've been using tap water. But, the city water comes from the reservoir and the underground aquifers. The water isn't too bad to cook with or to bathe in. I even brush my teeth with the tap water. My sons used to drink Kool-ade using the tap water and never have gotten sick. I personally don't like to drink the tap water; but, that is just me. I called PetSense and talked with the manager. Of course, he wants to sell me a product called ReptiSafe from Zoo Med. I asked him if this product could be used to de-chlorinate fish tanks. He said no, that I would need to get something different for that.
I looked the product up on Amazon. Turns out that it can be used in fish tanks. But, do I really need it? Yesterday when I changed the water, I did about half tap water and half distilled water. The tap water is pretty clean if you look up the data on our city's water. There are very few contaminants. The city does add fluoride and chloride, I think. Distilled water is the only water that I have that has had all minerals removed. It is the only water that I can use in my steam iron and my cpap machine. Can I use a Brita or Pur? I don't have either one of these items and haven't priced them in a long while. I subscribe to a water delivery program. It's purified through a couple different methods and has had minerals added for flavor.
I'm looking for advice or input from people who have used a variety of things to provide water for their beardies. Thank you for taking the time to read.
