Water: Distilled vs purified vs everything else

[Ted]

There's another source and that's filtered watered,,like with a brita....it filters out chlorine and 96% of the pharmaceuticals found in water...I also let it sit for 3-5 days on top of it...

Fiji artesian bottled water?

[flybyferns]

What is your question about "Fiji artesian bottled water" ?

De-chlorinated tap water should be used for most frogs for their water dishes
It is imperative this is understood

I use this product:

Aquatize / Exo-TerraThe chemical treatment of tap water, which makes it suitable for human consumption, leaves toxic residues of chlorine and chloramine in the water. Minute traces of toxic metals also make tap water unsafe to reptiles and amphibians. Always treat tap water with Aquatize terrarium water conditioner. Aquatize contains plant extracts to stimulate natural slime coat development in amphibians and fish. Essential oils in these extracts promote shedding in reptiles and maintain scales and skin tissue in optimal health. * Makes tap water safe * For healthier terrarium water conditions * Removes Chlorine & Chloramine * Neutralizes heavy metals * Detoxifies * Stimulates slime coat development in amphibians & fish Shedding aid.

Distilled water can be use for cleaning the glass as it will not cause water spots ( has no minerals) Most frogs CAN NOT tolerate this long term.

Aquatize is 6$ -- it lasts for a very long time. It treat many, many gallons of water.
Several drops /gallon of tap water /takes a second to make.

VS

Paying for water and using Aquatize in anyway

If there is a temptation to use a store bought 'drinking water' product---call ---ask them if the contains 'chloraimes or any heavy metals'.

Would it be considered safe for use?
