What water should i fill a tank with?
I am going to raise and breed Triops Longicaudatus. i have a 10 gallon tank but im not quite sure what i should fill it with… Distilled water is too pure so it will kill the triops, and tapwater isnt too great either…
I have a little bottle of Instant DeChlor which removies chlorine and chlorine dioxide.
Can i fill the tank with tap water and then put the Dechlor in? will that be suitable for the triops?
any other suggestions of water to fill the tank with?

i just ordered triops from ebay and in woundering how to prepare?
I just ordered some of them triops off of ebay and i have read up they get pretty big.. so i have a old 10 gallon tank i dont use.. what all should i do to get it prepared and how long should it be set up before i put them in it? i got the delux triop kits so they will live in the tank included until ready to be moved.. i own alot of fish but triops arent the same.. and distilled water isnt cheap so i was woundering if i could just use the water purifirer i use in the regular fish tanks? or should i just buy distilled water? also should i buy a uv lamp for them? and any other comments will be appericated im trying with them again so hopefully i will succeed and have them live a good 3-4 months as like the seamonkeys i tried over and they lasted a year and a half please please leave tips and comments on your expericence thanks

Making your own distilled water for Triops?
If I made my own distilled water (boiling water which takes out the minerals and chemicals), is this safe to use for my Triops to hatch? I have looked into jugs of distilled water already. I want to make my own distilled water!
