I just did a water change.I took out about 25%.when i went to refill i found out i was out of dechlorinator :sad-smiley-002:. now i have sum API 6.5 witch has dechlorinator built in to it. Do you think if i use a tea spoon or so on my 29gal i would get a big ph drop and heart: my fish? or do you think i would be better off not doing anything?

With a tank that small, you should probably keep a 5 gallon bucket of water aging at all times. Chlorine will dissipate in aged water. You may not have to add anything to it at all, just let it sit a few days.

Ahhh, but the chloramine will not dissipate so for many in the US, aging does not work.

Monitor your pH- and add baking soda if you need to adjust it higher.
