Better safe than sorry. and yes, you can sterilize fish/plants. you sterilize fish by QT and treatment of any illness that shows up. you sterilize plants by doing a bleach dip.nope never have on any of the plants. i run them under tap water and throw them in. you cant sanitize the fish so why sanitize the plants? i have 3 blue gills in there from the same water and i used to have a striped bass but to much co2 killed him. very sensitive for such a strong fighter.
I have picked up many many local plants and never sterilized them.
It's called quarantine, my friend. There could be disease that could spread from your sunfish tank to all the other tanks via the same net and all that.you cant sanitize the fish so why sanitize the plants?
i have diffrent nets for each tank and never cross contaminate between the tanks. thanks guys.It's called quarantine, my friend. There could be disease that could spread from your sunfish tank to all the other tanks via the same net and all that.
