Best way to clean old tank

[mebo926]

I just got a nano cube and its used and really dirty. What's the best way to clean a tank and get all the old stuff out? Any reef safe chemicals or the old fashion was with hot water and elbow grease?

Even in the filter area??? That's the bad part.

Yes , Even in the filter part. Just rinse afterwards.

You can also use a 20% muratic acid solution and it will clean up faster than vinegar just use in a will ventilated area. Cleaned my stuff up like new!
