Hi...is there any problem with using a garden hose to fill the tank when doing a water change?
We have our hose connected to a mixer tap so we can set the right temperature, but recently we bought a new hose which has the typical plastic smell to it. And the water tastes like hose too.
Will this affect the fish or is the taste and smell only something humans are sensitive to?

alot of garden hoses have an anti mildue coating on the inside so just make sure that you dont have one of thoes because if the anti mildue coating leaches into you water it can be toxic to you r fish
