Good timing, might want to change the carbon before thinning.
I don't but probably should. Just rinse very well after using soap. I would only use plain soap like Ivory.

They won't hold their breath, but will nag you to death. Just ask for help to post if you can't figure it out. You will need to "go advanced" to...
Yeah they are tough to figure out. Just look at pictures people have posted here to see the variety of forms.
