    Cleaning Question

    Today i did a full cleaning of my tank. I cleaned the tank with Chlorhexadine that i purchased from reptile basics for disinfecting, washed the fake plants and put brand new aspen. This is the first time i have done this since owning my BP a little over a month now, i do spot clean daily if necesary. I put everything back exactly how it was, then a few minutes later i put my BP back in and ever since he has been roaming around and kinda rubbin his face on the glass tank a bit is this normal behavier or is there something i did wrong ??

    It's normal behavior.

    The tank doesn't have their scent on it anymore and they don't recognize the place as much anymore, so they roam about and mine usually defecate or urinate shortly after.
