its almost time for me to clean Twister's Viv again, and it has always been a really big hassle. The first time i went to clean it, i took out all of the stuff in the Viv, dumped the substrate, rinsed it out, then filled it 10% of the way with bleach, then used hose water to fill up the rest. i scrubed the tank with a towel, and then scrubbed down all the stuff from his viv using the bleach/water from the viv. While i was cleaning, i noticed that there were several things other than water coming from the hose. It was a real pain to get out all of the stuff coming from the hose that wasn't water. Then, when i went to dump the water, the viv tipped over, and got all dirty on the side that was on the ground. I then used water and paper towels to scrub the dirt off the side that fell on the ground. Then i soaked all the stuff from his viv in plain water from the sink, to get the bleach out. After that, i hand dried all of the stuff that was in his viv (hides, vines, fake leaves, water bowl, etc)
The next time (and every time since) i pretty much did the same thing, but instead of getting the water from the hose, i used a big pitcher and got water from the sink. that took forever, and i ended up with puddles of water leading from my sink to the back door, from where water spilled out of the pitcher.
its all been a huge hassle, and i was wondering if you guys had an easier way to clean vivs?
