    Tap water or Purified water?
    I am going to go get my BP Today!!!!!

    But the most simplest question I forgot was, Do I use tap or purified water?

    I know I can get some water conditioner for tap water but will regular tap water do?

    Thanks for you help!! :D

    Personally, I use filtered water for Fírnen's drinking water, and regular tap water for misting his tank. I don't think it matters very much though.

    Congratulations on your first beep!!

    Tap water unless it is that tap water that catches fire :P

    I use reptisafe but there really is no reason to have to use it. Chlorine evaporates from open tap water in a container anyway.

    If you are on public water, there are minute amounts of chlorine. which is VERY IMPORTANT to prevent bacteria and viruses from forming in the water. So filtering the chlorine out can be great for immediately drinking, but I would use it right out of the tap, with chlorine still intact for a stagnant water bowl.

    I am on a well, so the water is not chlorinated, so I just change it frequently to prevent bacteria growth.

    I use tap water. It's good enough for me and my fish so it's good enough for my snakes.

    Congrats, dont forget to post pics!

    I use tap water with exo terras aquatize, which dechlorinates the water. Bought a small bottle that I use in my toad tank, bp water dish, and crestie spray bottle and its still half full a year later.
