Getting Off Water Stains

[LizMarie]

I found this great deal on Craigslist for a 20gallon long with a screen top for only $20. Hopefully it hasn't been sold yet.

The person says that it doesn't have scratches or cracks but it does have a few water stains since he had fish in it before. Obviously when I get it I'm going to scrub it like I've never scrubbed before but what can I use for the water stains!? Any ideas?

Try vinegar and a magic eraser.

i have actually used my steam cleaner. It's a safe no chemical way. it takes a couple times but it works wonders as well as it disenfects.

API aquarium cleaner, works like a charm on tough water stains.

This will not scratch the glass. Use it with vinegar.

I did think post for NOTHING. I just got the tank and was expecting this huge ring around the tank! It's practically brand new just for a small little chip on one of the edges. It came with the screen top to. I'm happy. I just didn't realize how big that tank actually was, lol

20 longs i think are like 30 inches long, you should see a 30 breeder, 36lx12hx18w cleaning those are a chore.

Oh I know! I used to have a tank that was 36x12x16 i believe.. oh man.. i think if i cleaned it out completely 3times a year it was too much. I knew how long the 20 gallon longs are but i was just shocked to see it in person. I need a stand now, lol
