I yes about that original question - just de-chlorinated water - ALWAYS DE-CHLORINATED water...

I never managed to find any
but from what i remember it was causing problems due to the fact that it was very weak (i think is was less than 4%) so doseing needed to be a lot higher than a pure ammonia product.

Jayes Kleen Off is the one we're on about here any others welcomed with open arms
If you find another product in the UK let us know.

Hi guys and gals, as you have seen i am currently doing a fishless cycle, my advise use Kent's dechlorinator (cant remember exact name) as this definately doesnt remove ammonia (which is what you want when doing a fishless cycle) as it says if you want a product that removes ammonia aswell you need a different Kent product, its available from Aquarium Superstore, i didnt get this, i used aquasafe, but in hindsight i should have used kent's one which i was going to use in the first place. Also i bought my ammonia from Homebase, which is 9.5% ammonia and the rest is water, so its not bad, and only £2.99 if i remember correctly.
