I guess at the very least, I'm not intending on eating any of these fish.


Been browsing around looking at aquarium dechlorination stuff. I see that Sodium Thiosulfate is the primary in a few of these now. That's cool!

The two chemical dechlorinators one would want to look for if you planned on having fish-n-chips would be sodium thiosulfate, and even a better one, Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C) PH Neutral version.

Could be many reasons that a product is labeled "not safe to use with fish intended for human consumption". A big one could be that their manufacturing process can not meet the stringent requirements that are required for a product that could be potentially incorporated onto ones dinner plate. Also could be that they don't want to deal with the regulations. Who knows for sure!

Just thought I would kick that out for thought.
