    I am very uncomfortable with bleach I would rather throw everything out than attempt bleaching honestly.

    Luckily the two seem to be doing quite well. As long as I keep things in it that aren't likely to get whatever the frogs have I will be fine I think I just need to buy more tongs

    I've used white vinegar a lot to clean tanks that have been broken down. My 40B was purchased used and was a saltwater tank previously and I was able to clean all the mineral deposits and start it over as a freshwater planted tank using only vinegar and a razor blade.

    Yea being pale could be a number of things. In fish it could mean they're sleeping, the water is bad, ect.

    It was more than paleness ... I am a little paranoid since I keep other animals it can pass to.
