Continuous Water Change
#8
if you going to add a continuous fresh water in and water out you will still need some kinda water conditioner like an inline charcoal filter to remove chlorine and chloramine and other metals out of the water. Where I lived before we had cold water sweet springs water was damn near perfect coming out of the ground then the city add chlorine very sad but the point is don't do like I did I just hooked up a 1/2 inch line to a auto drip and ran a 3/4 line to the bottom of the exit pipe behind a washing machine drain worked perfect but I never thought about the chlorine and it built up in my tank till one day a large school of rummy nose tetras where all dead I explained my set up to the fish store at the time and the guy checked the water with a pool test kit and the reading was very high don't remember the numbers now but that was happened to me.
Just telling the story so other people don't have to suffer like I did.
