What way sodium trisulfate used to eliminate chlroride in water could damage the water quality by leaving a continued sodium after the daily WC?

Not exactly sure what you're getting at here, but sodium thiosulphate is what's used to dechlorinate water....

Yes I know, and it dechlorinate water by capturing chlroride and leaving sodium in water and I mean about what bad side effect it could leave in water (the sodium) by the continued daily water changes

I have been using Sodium Trisulfate for years with no negative effects at all. It has proven to be a very good, very low cost dechlorinator. Mind you... my municipal water company using chlorine. It does not use chloramine. STS only works for chlorine.

Without going and finding the the exact info STS + Cl reacts to give you NaCl/salt and another sodium based chemical.

Fish use and need sodium

Thanks Graham, though about that since any new water change will add new round of sodium salts based, so under long time..., that's why I asked about
