Default Anti-Para/Bacter Equipment Dips

I have scaled back
But I found 'net san' to be a good product.
Of course a trip to the pool shop
will yeild many cheap chemicals that can be used

Wouldn't mind trying steam some day tho.
Always wondered how well it would work.

I work in a warehouse with over 200 individual tanks. The prevention of
the passage of pathogens from tank to tank is paramount. Until now we
have
been using concentrated QuickCure (formaldehyde and malachite green) dips
to that end, but that chemical is now illegal to sell here.

I'm considering switching to copper and methylene blue, but have yet to
find a good bulk source of the later.

Anyone out there in a similar situation? What do you use to sanitize your
equipment (e.g. nets, etc.) as you move tank to tank?

==============================
And places like Home Depot sell diatomaceous earth for a fraction of the
rip-off prices charged by the Aquarium Supply industry. Pool thermometers
are also a fraction of what they charge for pond therms'.
