I'm wondering if these home water filtration devices will give you water that's safe for minnows. I've used the tablets that remove the chlorine from tap water, but there are units out there that sposed to remove the chlorine, too. Am I crazy?

I've been told by Jigflinger that the filtration systems for RVs can be had that remove the chlorine, but haven't looked into it yet. I'm sure it'd work though.
That'd be handy because you could put them on a hose to get the water where I need it.
Wannabe...
mr. wills, iwhen i need water for minnows, i just fill up my container and le it sit overnight, then put the minnows in the next morning.........never had a problem. sometimes, I use my aquarium chlorine remover, adding a few drops, which also works well. by the way, whats a good starting point for fishing bee this time of year, what part of the lake, thanks!
