I found some ants in my tank the other day on a piece of melon. I just took the melon out and killed the ants and put the melon back two or three times until there were no more ants.Then I left a piece of melon on top of the tank and wrapped a piece of press and seal around each leg of the tank with...

I am using the 5/1 playsand and coconut fibre, my only problem is I can't tell which is the poop and which is coco fibre to clean the tank.Does anyone have a solution for this one?
