    I have stainless steel scissors that I use to trim/frag my coral and I want to use them to trim plants in my FW tank. What is the best method to cleaning them?
    Thanks!

    Rinse them off in RODI water and then dry to keep them from rusting.

    A drop of olive oil on the joint is a good idea too.

    Ok, I guess I can do that. But, why olive oil?
    Thanks, Curt!
