Those should help. Most people don't use plastic test tubes though, they are pretty hard to maintain and take pictures with.

I reuse them. The problem is scratching them. I wash with hot tap water, liquid antibacterial soap. I then use a little rubbing alcohol. Then more rinsing in hot water, then air dry.
