Yes, that is correct. The well water has high mineral content and the conditioner uses salt pellets and a double filtration to soften so it does not build up on shower heads or damage appliances. I do know that watering plants/flowers with conditioned water can kill them due to salt content, so I took the same approach with my slider. I have raised her from a hatching for the past 5 months in well water and she seems healthy, no wierd spots on her shell. But wanted to ask to head off any potential problems. I can test the water but what am I looking for? Is a simple ph test enough?
