We live in an area where the tap water is horrible and rely on
rainwater for household use. We don't have industrial polution affecting the rainwater quality and lttle chance of agricultural contaminants! If we buy goldfish from town where the filtered tapwater has approx 500mg salt per litre (plus chlorination and everything else) obviously we cant just transfer them to straight rainwater so we add a "rainwater conditioner" which is a salt solution. Can we gradually dilute the solution by adding straight rainfater with each change (25%) of tank water? Do goldfish have a requirement for some salt (can they live in crystal clear mountain streams)? It would be an advantage as far as reducing algal growth if the water was purer. |
