This topic has come up more than once over at the CHAMELEON FORUM.
Chlorine and Chloramine in tap water.
Some keepers have reverse osmosis systems or fancy filtration systems or use bottled water for supplying drinking and misting water to their Chameleons...and now it has grown to other pets and people.
Chlorine leaves tap water. Chloramine does not.
Water conditioner drops remove both. But is it neccessary?
I've used water out of the tap for every animal I've ever kept.
Does chloramine present a danger in the low doses that are in tap water? Or should it always be removed or otherwise avoided?
(Here it is about 2.5 mg/L)
