Remove Chlorine Without Chemicals

Dear Aquaworld,
How do I take chlorine out of our water without using chemicals?

Dear Gordon,
There are a couple of ways to remove chlorine. Passing tap water through a carbon filter will remove chlorine. Another way is collect the tap water in a large plastic trash can or drum barrel and aerate it for at least 6 hours. The aeration will gas off the chlorine.
