Well, sometimes it is because you did not add enough hypo. I switched from
commercial expensive hypo solutions that were "supposed" to eliminate chlorine
at one drop per gallon to my own solution or crystals at much higher
concentrations after I killed some fish being so careful adding exactly what the
manufacturer recommended. Later, I found that I needed about 5 times that amount to
eliminate detectable chlorine. That was long before chloramine was an issue.
