    I add a capful (cheap stuff) to my tupperware where my 4/8 lives . I suppose there is about a gallon of water in it. Keeps the sides of the stone from turning green! Too much would definitely be a bad thing, IMO.

    I use 1 tsp of (Clorox) bleach per 1 quart of water.
    I have yet to see anything form in the water after many months of use.

    I change out the water once a year, only because I feel that I am diluting the solution with the water left on a freshly rinsed stone, after honing various times a year and placing the stone back in the solution.
