[Killietalk] rain reason and follow ups

[Airwreck <Airwreck at airwreck_com>]

The reason I use rain water is here on the island is that the water co puts 
really major chemicals in the tap water and we get tons of rain...had a 
major fish kill when using tap water..so never again..In addition the rain 
water is run off from the roof..so it gets all kinds of goodies from the 
plant matter that there..maybe not as electrolytes but the fry seems to be 
doing just fine.. Nice and plump. Also the tap water is so hard it almost 
breaks your face in the shower..GRIN.. with a ph that is out of this 
world..almost 9 ...You get concrete we get bricks..but I will add a sprinkle..

WOW that is a long time in the pocket...so i guess I was to short.. will 
try again tomorrow..

Cold water shock.. in Colorado I hope that's not winter water???

And yes the microworms last...and I will not give up until I see the white 
eggs.. I just figured that they would have pooped out before that or 
something..

Thanks all for the suggestions..
