I empty my tank when done with a bleach treatment and then rinse =
thoroughly and drain again before a dechlor overdose (just to be safe) =
before adding fish.=20
This has always worked for me. Given enough time, I think the bleach =
would dissapate/break down, but I like to be safe.

Hi gang,
Well I nuked the whirling tank while I was in Costa Rica and I'm =
getting ready to do what comes next.
Do I drain the bleach water out completely? Or does it just break =
down into nitrogen?
I dumped about 2/3 of a jug in so it still smells like bleach. =20
Any advice would be much appreciated :)
Thanks
Todd
