Leptopolis vermaculatus - does not soak in water dish?

[kairi]

Great info! Good to know nothing is amiss. However, does the fogger water need to be dechlorinated too? I have been doing that to be on the safe side.

Always use dechlorinated water. It's better for your frogs and will definitely extend the life of your Fogger. The nozzle tends to clog if you use hard water.

I think Eric means to say you should use DISTILLED in your system. This water has absolutely no minerals in it, that build up and deposit in your system

No. I meant dechlorinated water. Water left in an open container for 48 hours will be just fine

Hmm wait.. what do you mean by dechlorinated water? I thought that meant putting the blue drops in regular water and you're good to go..

Chlorine will evaporate as a gaz if you let water out in an open container fro 24-48 hours.

It is reccomended by the fog machine manufactures to use distilled water in them or the minerals in regular tap water can shorten the life of the fogger. You should also use distilled water in your hand misting water bottles as that will help keep water spots off the glass. In the frog's water dish you can use regular dechlorinated tap water. There was a thread about the different water awhile back...try a search on it as John goes into more detail.
