How often should I clean the tank
Okay so I've been reading and people have different ideas how often tanks should be cleaned out and changing out the substrate, and the best way to clean the tank and what to use and if wipeout is really good or is there something better.

I spot-check every day (clean poop, wet substrate, that sort of stuff). Once a month take everything out, clean hides/water bowl/accessories. Take out all substrate. Then I spay the viv with Viv clean disinfectant by Pro reptile, leave for a few minutes and then wipe out with warm water. It is also recommended that you remove shed as soon as it comes off as well.
So tl:dr, spot-check daily, full clean monthly. Hope this helps!

I check for poop and pee all of the time but now I notice a pattern with my snake she usually goes inside the hotside hide and will leave to the cool side until it's cleaned out. But just for disinfectant wise. What is best I have a 40g glass tank and I've been using a disinfectant spray so now I'm just wondering what else would be effective.
