Why should I use demineralised water?
Unfortunately tap water can contain many agents that can be harmful to Billabong Bugs. Some of these include Fluoride, Chlorine, Chloromine, Ammonia, Iron, zinc and Copper oxides, salts and some types of harmful bacteria. Even Rain Water Tank water can contain some of these harmful agents, so we suggest that you only use demineralised water, which is available from many supermarket chains or automotive stores (Used for ironing and toping up car batteries).
