	You get it hydrostatically tested when it is due to be tested. 3 or 5 years, depending on the tank. Don't let any dirt, etc, get inside the tank. In terms of cleaning, you wipe it off. Hopefully, you won't be cleaning the inside of the cylinder for any reason.

	Get a nipple cover, a fill nipple cover (not a little plastic one - they suck. Get a a metal one that wont fall off or break). Get a tank cover (I love my dye rhino cover), and just be careful with it. Don't bang it around (dents + hpa = bad news). I just whipe mine down with a rag w/ windex after a day of playing.
