I use news paper and water to get it off. Holly

Ive never tried newspaper before, but I have used vinegar and it works great

ya that to I ment to say that vinegar and water mix with news paper will do well too. Holly

Sorry vinegar and water and mix it and then use news paper to wip the vinegar off. Thire that sounds better. Holly

I will try the newspaper first because it sounds lie it would be the easiest thing to try...without disturbing my gecko too much..The spots have been there for awhile I guess. I may have to do the vinegar or other ideas given when I clean the tank out next. I don't want to make my gecko upset right now..he is stressed from the new decor arrangement =) Thanks everyone. OH and I have been wiping after spraying now =) I guess I should have before, but I didn't know it would do that.

OH I must be an idiot =) I will do that when I clean it out next then. I need to let my gecko relax for now. THANKS ALOT GUYS! Or do you all do it with the critter and the aquarium still setup?

I've had this problem myself, but it didn't bother me much. Newspaper and vinegar you say? Hmm, neat! And the vinegar doesn't seem to irritate the little oneses?

I haven't tried it yet because I didn't want to do it with my gecko in the aquarium. I wasn't sure if the smell or whatever would affect the poor thng. I am planning to giving it a try next cleaning...soon, but these spots have been there for a little while and I am not sure if something stronger is going to be needed. I don't want to have the tank ready for cleaning and then have the spots not come off. =) But I guess there is always nest time right lol...it is just alot of work getting this 55 gallon cleaned and not to mention my trouble maker living in it haha

i keep a spare 10 gallon tank that I use for cleanings I put paper towel on the bottom put the critters in there and clean the tank then I clean the 10 gallon and move to the next tank

I guess I could give that a try. The last time I cleaned I put my Tokay in a box and I felt bad, but it worked. I am afraid that I won't be able to catch the sucker in a 10 gallon (he is fast and gets nasty when cornered, lol) The box was small enough that I could put it in the 55 gallon when it was cleaned so he could get out himself. I didn't have heat for him, though and I was nervous about him being stress out. He didn't want to come out of the box when I was finished, so I left the box in front of his hide and he came out eventually.
