Cleaning new items....

Post by fandt94 » Fri Aug 17, 2018 5:23 pm

Curious as to how everyone cleans new items purchased like plastic foliage? Right now I have one soaking in dechlorinated fresh water...

I rinse in dechlorinated tap water and put it in the tank. There's no need to soak plastic plants or tank accessories.
