So I got a good deal on a JBJ 65 aio, bought it off a guy that said he had it running for 8 months, did a leak test and everything checked out. So now I'm cleaning it all up and wondering how I can clean the inside of the display glass so it's and nice and clear. Upgrading from a 15 gallon to a 65. Thank you in advance.

First year in the hobby.
 
Fill the tank with tap water, and a healthy splash of white vinegar or citric acid, turn the pump on and let everything "cook" for a few hours to even overnight. In that time the mineral deposits should just disolve.

Good luck with your new tank!
 
Hi, I'm curious to know what would be the best way to get the vinegar or citric acid out of the tank after. A truckload of paper towels?
