    Question Tub & Tank Cleaning

    Just wondering what folks recommend for cleaning out their tubs and/or tanks, and what to avoid that could be harmful to the snake (reptile specific products, soap & water, etc.)?

    You ask a question and then don't like the answer??
    FYI X3 on the F10
    I have an idea that you have no clue what F10 is: Reptile Basics F10

    F10 is a specific cleaning product. Very helpful reply. I personally use Chlorhexidine solution.

    Before jumping the gun and answering the way you did you might want to ask questions first

    F10 is not an insult nor is it being rude

    Re: Tub & Tank Cleaning

    My mistake and apologies to King James. F10 can also be used as an insult implying you are asking a stupid question. Because his response had so little detail I did jump to conclusions. Had F10 come wth all of the details provided in later posts, the context would have let me know it was an actual cleaning product.

    I use F10 from Reptile Basics too. A little teeny bit goes a long way; mine is diluted to specifications and in a spray bottle. I filled up my first bottle about a month and a half ago, and it's still nearly full with plenty of the concentrate left as well.

    Re: Tub & Tank Cleaning

    So I noticed that F10 has both a disinfectant and a cleaner/sanitizer - does everyone use both or one over the other?
