I usually use 3 5 gallon bottles, fill them up and just let the sit for 24 hours, no water treatment of sorts, just give it time for the chlorine to evaporate. Seems to work out ok.

Only problem was the pleco was sick or something, killed 2 of my angels before I caught it (had 4 angels). Kinda ticked me off, but not much I can really do about it except stop buying fish from Petland :) Kev .... ...and sometimes the bear eats you. --- Telegard/2/QWK v3.09.g2-sp4/mL * Origin: Razor's Domain BBS (1:397/10) .
