I just set my tank up for my first BP but should I've cleaned the new hide and water dish and froze the substrate before putting them in the tank??? Or am I ok??????

Always best to be on the safe side. Clean and disinfect new items going into the tank.

Ok so being as though I've already placed everything, would have to clean the whole tank?

If it were me, I would. What size is your tank?

Do you already have the snake, or are buying it? Hatchling or sub-adult/adult?

Yes terrarium, coconut fiber substrate, a hide, a water dish and some vines. I've already placed everything in there but I'm hoping I don't have to take everything out and clean but if I had to its cool.
