Hey, I was just doing some research on what everyone was using to clean their tanks and everyone seems to use the F10SC cleaner, but everywhere online is sold out, and nowhere sells it locally so I went to their contact page and sent them and email asking when it would be back in stock and turns out it was never approved to be sold in Canada, so I was just wondering what the next best cleaner would be?
For regular cleaning I just use 50/50 vinegar / water -- but the disinfecting really good is the F10 - which I use -- some others on here could recommend some stuff for you

I got it off Amazon when I first purchased it but that was a like a year ago -- here is some stuff sold on pangeareptiles.com its a disinfectant they are selling its called Chlorhexidine (aka Nolvasan) is a very effective bacteriacide, virucide, and fungicide. 100% safe to use in reptile cages because it leaves no toxic residue or fumes. This is the same stuff veterinarians use to irrigate wounds and is even used as a mouthwash for animals and people. And of course it says this Not Available For International Shipments---------- so I would look for something in Canada that you can get there https://www.amazon.com/F10SCXD-Cleaner-Disinfectant-200ml-6-8oz/dp/B00GMLNLIE

I guess they’re not shipping internationally right now because of the covid-19 maybe who knows lol, that’s the American amazon and they don’t have it on the Canada amazon and of course they won’t ship it internationally at the moment. I think I found the F10SCXD online on LLLreptile, a website listed on the buyf10.com on the where to buy, is the SCXD the same you just have to rinse it after? Like it would be safe to use in my terrarium?
Mine is the F10 SC -- I checked mine and it says you dont need to rinse so I am not sure what the difference is between the two are -- the XD you dont need to rinse either -- check Ebay

I use F10sc diluted 1:500 and just spray on , let air dry and then wipe any residue away with a paper towel if there is any residue.
With the current covid-19 mass madness and lots of blackmarket profiteering going on internationally with antiseptics, sanitisers, bogpaper, etc etc , good luck finding F10sc or any F10 products in stock for sale at normal prices anywhere ( I've seen Ebay sellers demanding $6000 for a 200mm bottle of F10sc …. crooks !!! ).
Only alternative I'd recommend is high pressure ( hence superheated) steam.

Hey cooper do you know if it’s possible to get it in Canada? I tried to get it off of that LLLreptile site but they don’t ship liquid internationally and the bean farm wants $45 to ship it and that’s a bit excessive
