I was wondering if anyone has used Pond Start by Jungle Pond as a dechlorinator. My mom found it on sale for 3 bucks to treat 700 gals. I know it will work, but I'm afraid that it will eliminate the ferts in my aquarium also. Does anyone know if it will or if there's any other side effects I should know about? I don't know if dechlorinator for ponds is the same thing as it is for aquariums. Any input-no matter how small- is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Scouter
