Yeah I understand where you guys are coming from, but I guess for the time being I'd like to set everything different ways, trying to making it look real, but also being effective for all the snake's needs (hide spots, shedding, ,heating, and climbing fixtures). I know there are people out there who are on the same page as me, but I just wanted to know some easy ways to clean these items. I mean when people go about doing their monthly clean on a tank, how do yall go about cleaning the plants, etc.?
