just curious, what kind of water treatments are you guys using or had used in the past? Declorine, safe start, and such

I only use Prime. I love it, it detoxifies the tons of chloramine in my water, along with the heavy metals. It's also very concentrated so a little goes a long way.

I use Amquel. It seems to work and I got 5 gallons of it LITERALLY LOL. I hate running out so I bought it in bulk saving about 50% of the cost!

That's a plant fertilizer, not a dechorinator.

I use whatever water conditioner I can find in my town which is either Aqua Safe or Safe Start. When ordering online, I get whatever good product comes in large bottles and happens to be on sale but it has to be one of the good brands.
