Water: Distilled vs purified vs everything else

[abeloneto]

I’m drinking tap water and so do the whole family – our children as well.
It should be okay – so “they” say…
Why shouldn't it be good for fogs then?

Just make sure you are using a water conditioning product like Tetra Aquasafe or Amquel. You can purchase these at all petstores, even Walmart or even most supermarkets in the pet sections. They will decholorinate the tap water and make it safe for fish, frogs or reptiles.

Hi guys, I hope you folks don't mind me using some of the posts here especially the one by Dr. John Claire on the differences in water, as I'm a Mod a Vivarium section on a Singapore Forum and thought all these information would be extremely useful? Thanks!

Please send a pm to John and ask him as all posts on this forum are his property. He is extremely helpful and will likely be more than pleased to help you.

Hi guys, I have access to an unlimited supply of spring water bottles from my work.
The side of the bottle reads the following mg/L
Calcium 0.7
Magnesium 1.4
Sodium 10.0
Chloride 13.0
Potassium 0.9

Would this be suitable for my frogs or would I need to treat it first?
