I use a python on my 55-gal. I change 50 percent of the water every week
(10 days sometimes). When refilling, I simply add the treatment a little
bit here and there as I fill. No big deal. Remember, you still have half
of the water in the tank to buffer the change as you fill. Really, no big
deal. I've been doing it this way for years. No issues whatsoever.



Thanks Frank!
When Cloramine and Chlorine goes UNTREATED, what happens to the fish?
Obviously I wouldnt dream of not treating the water, but I like to know
why these things are important. All I know at the moment is that the
chemicals in my water are bad, and need removing! Why though?

Gary.



There is also the option of aerating the water as much as possible before
adding it to the tank which has a dispersal effect.

That will not have any affect on chloramine. It does, however work on chlorine.
Chloramine does not gas out like chlorine does.
