Hey Everybody, In my house I used to have problems with hard water ruining the pipes, so i got a water softener installed. This is kind of a problem because I have three Diamondback Terrapins in my room on the second story of my house. The reason this is a problem is because to get to the water that isn’t softened i have to go downstairs and outside to get to the unsoftened hose and I have to make trips back and forth with a 5 us gallon arrowhead jug to fill up my 100 gallon tank. What I was wondering was if I am able to keep my Diamondback Terrapins in the softened water because I am planning on keeping them in brackish water anyways? Thanks a bunch, Brandon Hauser
