As the animal drinks and the basin level drops, water flows down from the reservoir to refill it automatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this need cleaning if the reservoir keeps it full?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — clean the reservoir and basin on the same schedule you'd use for any water dish. A topped-up basin can still grow bacteria if it isn't rinsed regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this the same product as your other Exo Terra Water Well listing?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth are gravity-fed dispensers from Exo Terra's Water Well range using the same mechanism.
