More questions about crypto because this is the first I have heard of it....
I have a gecko rescue - i mentioned him much earlier in an older post... been to the vet twice. First time he went, he still had two other rescues with him, and the only stool sample I had that was viable was one of a few on the paper towel. At that time, the vet said he didn't find evidence of any parasites... if a vet didn't perform an acid smear test (to specifically detect crypto), would there be any evidence in the stool sample, when viewed under a microscope?
Also, let's say Pablo passes on, let's say he did have crypto - would the 20-gallon terrarium be reusable? If standard disinfectant methods don't work, what will in killing the spores?
