I'll look into collecting rainwater! That would probably be a good idea and the tip about the tar roof is helpful, I wouldn't have known that. No managed lawns, farming area here so that's still a possibility.
Those would be really neat, I have looked into them a little bit. I'm loosely planning a 20 or 29 gal so I will definitely look into them more, I hear they have pretty neat behaviors.
Yes, very similar. I'm definitely checking the ammonia again. I'm not sure what actually gets put in the tap when it comes inside, I was told it was "chlorine bleach" so I'll figure out what we actually put in there. I didn't dechlorinate before testing the water, I had a sample in a plastic cup for a few days to get a more accurate pH reading so I took water from that.
Thank you to everyone who replied! I'll look into the ammonia, it is definitely concerning. I don't know a ton about how my household's water softener/treatment systems work so it's theoretically possible it's from that or the well itself could have a problem. I'll look into testing the well too.
