Cjbear087 Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Hi, back in mid April I had a camallanus worm outbreak in my tank and I have recently started using the bucket which I have kept at the back of my closet because I heard that camallanus can even stay alive in a water drop so I thought it’s just better I buy a new bucket and don’t use that one. However recently I’ve needed to use it as I’m using my normal bucket for something else. My question is do I have to worry about using this bucket because it could reinfect my fish? As I said it was about mid April I last used it so about 3 months they would have been without a host and I’d like to add the bucket was completely dry when I took it back out of my closet.

Mmiller2001 Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Just wash it with some plain ol’ Dawn dish soap if worried. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
