Letting water sit uncovered for several hours can also allow chlorine to evaporate, too.


Our drinking water here is treated with cholrine and you can taste it. When filling/changing the fish bowl we let the water sit in the window for 24 hrs before putting the fish in it. I also have a small fish pond and when I top off the water, they kinda go into a mild shock for a few hours. I have lost fish that way. I think ingesting any chemicals is probably bad but what would be the result of getting sick from untreated water. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
