[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, When I was a kid ( in England if that makes a difference) we had a goldfish in a large fishbowl, When we cleaned the water we would let the new water sit for several hours before putting the fish in, I thought this made the water suitable for them?
I also had a Beta in a large bowl about 15 years ago and it lived a really long time in tap water.[/quote]

The US has chlorine in the tap water which would kill your pet. You need to let it set so temps equalize. [/quote]

DW got goldfish for DD. We have them last night and put in the bowl.

THEY ARE DEAD THIS MORNING.

I was worried about the chlorine but she said growing up in California they had goldfish and just put in tap water.

I read about sitting it out and knew that would help the temp, but would sitting the water overnight not evaporate the chlorine???

Isn’t spring water chlorinated?  Pet store wasn’t helpful. [/quote]
Why would u revive a 6 year old thread about goldfish. [/quote]
