basking rock question
Hi everyone,
New to the BTS world and it's fascinating to see whats out there
I'm just getting set up to get ready for out baby northern and was wondering if it would be okay to use an old basking rock we used to have for a turtle years ago? I've cleaned it out pretty well, but will some algae on it be potentially harmful? thanks for the feedback

Soak it in bleach mixed with water overnight, and let it dry in the sun the next day for a couple days or so.. and then rinse again just to be on the safe side.
