Hello!
These forums look great! So much useful stuff for noobies like me
I have an old 180 litre fishtank thats been sitting unused for about 6 months and didn't really have a chance to give it a good clean when I had to empty the tank and move it (painting/renovating). The most i did was let it sit in the sun for a week and gave it a quick scrub with a clean rag and water. Much of the algea is still on the glass, and was just wondering what the best way is to fully clean the tank so i can use it again and not risk having any of the old algea bloom and diseases/bacteria (if any) start living again. I heard if you're not careful, these things can carry over into your new setup ?
I also heard that white vinegar is good to clean the tank/filter/etc, but would rather hear it from people with some experience.
Again, these forums look great
Thanks to anyone who can help.
