well im selling off my 65G tank this weekend which just had a columninaris outbreak that killed all my fish as well as its infested with nemotodes( reasons for getting rid of it-cant stand it)

the tank has a bunch of plants i want/need to move to my remaining tanks (6 gallon eclipse and (2) 10 gallons....

i DO NOT want to transfer any of the nemotodes or columninaris to my healthy tanks so i was wondering how to go about sterlizing the plants as best as possible...

i tried to search here and use google but i didnt turn up very much help/

if anyone can let me know the best/effective way that would be great. thanks
 
19 parts water : 1 part bleach or hydrogen peroxide

there is also a salt bath (go by manafactures instructions on the box)

I am not sure whether any of the above will kill them, so ask in emergencies and someone will be able to tell you.
