I'm not familiar with the product you mention, the label should tell you if it is safe for certain kinds of animals.

If not, there are reptile/amphibian specific water conditioners. I use REPTISAFE by Zoo-Med. "Water conditioner for all species of lizards, turtles, tortoises, amphibians. Instantly removes chlorine and chloramines." And other stuff. There are other brands. Look in the reptile supplies aisle at Petsmart or a pet store.

It should be fine, I use a dechlorinator for my fish and turtles, they both drink the water so I don't think that it will harm either one of them. Very Happy
