Hey, I just got a feeder cone and a veggie clip for puffer tank. Smells like new plastic. Should I sanitize it, like soak it in hot water, or boil it or anything before I use it?

correct me if I'm wrong, but cold water doesn't kill germs does it?
I think it'll be fine if I just soak it in hot water, but ya, I like to rinse all my stuff too.

cold water doesnt kill germs regular hot water doesnt either. well cold water has a better chance cause of the cholorine and stuff they put into tap water
New plastic isn't a germ. Hot water will soften the plastic, something I prefer to avoid unless it needs to be shaped. Clod water works very well for lots of cleaning, particularly when you're dealing with vapors (ie, odors).
