water dechlorinator in spring water?

[swampy]

hi,
do i need to add a dechlorinator tablet to spring water? or any other kind of tablet to make it suitable for my bettas? or can i just move them from their dirty tank to another room temperature tank without chemicals. it's a 2.5 gallon tank, uncycled.

thanks.

you don't need to add dechlorinator to Spring water. if you want you can, but it is not necessary.

If you want to move him to another tank which has a totally different temperature, do it slowly because the change may or will cause stress which eventually would lead to decease.

While you don't need a dechlorinator in spring water, you may need to make other chemical corrections before it's suitable for your fish.

If you want more of an idea of what aspects of water chemistry affect fish, take a look at this link:
