Well Water

Question
I just set up my aquarium for the frist time since i moved, and we have well water here, and every fish person says oh well well water is the best thing for them... anyhow i have the filter going, but i really unsure what to do next... can u help???

Answer
Hey Rob,

Well water should be good because it doesn't have chlorine added to it, that's probably why everyone is telling you it is the best.

If you plan on getting cold water fish, then you could probably go out and buy some now. Just make sure you let the tank run for a few days with the filter going.

If you want tropical fish, make sure you put a heater in first and set the tank temperature at around 80 degrees farenheit.

As long as you let the tank run with the filter for a few days, maybe two or three, then you should be okay to add fish.

good luck with your tank, and the move!
