Hey guys! :) i havent posted anything in months, and i seem to be hated by everyone, but i need help! i cant seem to get my 15-foot siphon hose to dry completely! i leave it wrapped around the shower curtain rod all night, and its still wet in the morning! :| now it has a thin film of mold or something coating the inside that makes the water slightly brown when i fill the tank. i dont want her to get sick, so can anyone help? its not that serious, but i want to eliminate the problem asap. :D :msgreen:

Depending on how much mold is in there, it will be hard to clean. If it's just one or two small spots, I'd ignore it.

How old is the hose? I usually just clip one end to a bucket and lift the other end several times until most of the water is cleared out.

Why do you think you are hated? I think we're pretty chill hear. :)
