What dechlorinator?

[Crombie]

Just getting the last few bits together for my new tank and was just wondering what dechlorinator does anyone use?

Saechem prime for smaller tanks
Used to use a pond dechlorinator for my large aquarium but small doses are awkward.

Thought that's what I'd hear, thanks.

Ditto Prime, especially important if you're going to be using Seachem Purigen to help make the water clear.

Make your own ?

Using sodium thiosulphate

On a popular auction site you can get 1Kg for £6, which mixed at 1% gives about 100litres of dechlorinator, and at 0.5cm3 per 50litres of tank water your 100litres of dechlorinator is good for 100 litres / 0.0005 * 50 -> 10million litres of tank water. Job done...
