Chris,
Interesting, if the water was treated by UV sterilizers before it hit the
fish tank it shouldn't matter.  Unless it was creating some type of free
radical/oxidizing agent that then attacked the immune system.  But I
haven't heard anything like that for humans and UV is used in various
things all the time.

I would think that fish would be okay. (unless they were treated with UV
too)

Anyone have any experience with this?

Kathy
