I just bought some used reptile tanks from a dealer.In the past, I've only converted used fish tanks to herps, and not being concerned with passing disease,I've washed and cleaned them with dish washing soap mixed with Clorox.
But, I'm a little more concerned with a through disinfecting this time.What is the best method?? Thanks in advance.

I would wash them with household ammonia first, then rinse thoroughly, then wash with a 20% Chlorine bleach solution, rinse thoroughly again and then allow to dry in the sun.

Been using it exclusively for over 10 years (32 oz. bottle with a tablespoon of natural dish liquid soap, sold in health food stores.
