    Water changing question

    I just bought a python and I was wondering how you add the dechlor. when you are refilling up the tank. I just usually add the water into a bucket and add the dechlor and then I get am small 4 ft clear flizible tube and hold the bucket above the aquarium and let the water syphon in.
