It's definitely cringe-worthy, but I don't doubt the turning green part: a fish tank will do that too from algal growth, which is almost certainly what is happening to their "real" water.
- Xylakant 9y agoA fish tank provides ample nutrients for algae growth, pure spring water not so much (unless they pour fish food into the water) Pure tap water will not turn green within a month.
- ivanhoe 9y agoIt's really about the level of ammonia/nitrates in the water and a sufficiently strong source of light, that's all that algae need. It will happen to any water that sits a few weeks in open air so that spores can get into it. Even a regular tap water with added chloride will turn green if it has at least some level of nitrates in it (and usually they have).
