I have read to use a 2 liter bottle with the bottom cutoff to direct feed corals. I have saved 2 bottles. What do I use to clean out the bottles before using for this purpose?

I think water would be all that's needed as well. You could use a mild dish soap but you will have to rinse the heck out of it it make sure you get all the soap residue off it.

I put stuff like that thru the dishwasher with NO soap.
