I'm setting up my freshwater tank soon and was wondering if I could use the same Python that I use for my saltwater tank to do the water changes on the freshwater one?

Should I run warm water through it first or do something else beforehand, or would it just be better to get a separate Python for the fresh water?

Thanks.
 
just run some warm water through it. salt is water soluble and rinsing it for a bit will eliminate any ramaining salt.
 
Yes, I run hot water thru my python for a minuet or so. You will have no problems.
