I recently cleaned a used aquarium that i just bought with vinegar, and i rinced it with water.
ive seen other poeple do that, but it only occured to me that it could have an effect on water chemestry and
livestock health, like with Ph and whatnot.
i have a 55 gallon, so i cant touroughly rince it underneath the sink like
ive seen many do with nano tanks.

so my questions are:
is there anything else i need to do other than rincing the aquarium before using it?
if i start the aquarium now, what effects will it have?

What @Snoopy 67 said. Some of us add vinegar to control nutrients, so a little residual is no worry.
