Springtime water changes....

  Today's water changes are on hold for a bit. With all the rain, spring melts, and thawing of the ground, Dekalb has upped their chlorine treatment. I flipped on the tap this morn'n to that 'public swimming pool' smell. I run the change water through carbon filters, but this might be a bit much for them to handle? I'm thinking of doing some wash, running the dishwasher, etc. to see if that brings it down in the house pipes...it's worked before, somewhat, and I'll just use some de-chlor after filling the tub up, to be sure....I should have known it was coming and just filled the tub, etc to degas ....

Time for some rain barrels ... |^|
