    Reptiles to fish tanks

    If the tank was built for reptiles its not good as the glass is very thin. If it was an actual fish tank used for reptiles check the silicone is missing sections and clean with bleach or vinegar, rinse and dry.

    Buy or make RO/DI water and Saltwater

    In the long run making water is cheaper. I use Instant Ocean salt for two reasons. 1) it's cheap 2) never had issues with it
