Dechlorinated water
I know a lot of keepers like to use reptisafe for their water. I have a carbon block filter for my fish tanks that removes Chlorine and Chloramine only. It is not an RO filter justba chlorine remover. Is it OK to use this for my snakes water bowl? Or does reptisafe remove things that my Chlorine filter does not?

Re: Dechlorinated water
Most people just use tap anyways (myself included) I doubt it matters what kind of filter you use? I'm sure someone more experienced will chime in though in case I'm wrong lol

Re: Dechlorinated water
another owner that uses tap water here: of course using tap water safely depends on where you live, and imo if you can drink it your snake can, too.
i've actually rarely seen anyone here using products to decontaminate their pet's water unless their area has an issue. if you're set on using filters and products that's okay, but listen to others with experience with these if they chime in.

Re: Dechlorinated water
The filter is fine, almost every keeper uses straight up tap water.
Yes, it is fine to use for your snake.

Ok good to know. Straight tap works for me. My filter cartridges will last longer for the fish.

Not likely that you're going to have problem with your water quality and its contents unless you live in an area where the infrastructure for water supply is incredibly poor, or the pipes are for some reason lined with led.

I also use tap, but it really depends where you live.
