I Have a dusty tank that I would like to clean out and make sure there are no bacteria or anything harmful to my fish when I use the tank,
It's a few years old been in storage for over a year. Not extremely dirty but I guess would it be ok to just like use water and like a magic eraser to clean it and just let the water dry out and chlorine evaporate. Or should I use a chemicle that will evaporate to clean it?
Thanks in advance
 
Hi yes i would just give the tank a good rinse and let it fully dry out and possibly fill it up and leave a few days just to make sure it doesn't leak prior to using the tank(y) Also may i ask what are your plans for the tank are?:)
 
I think I'm going to change the tank my fish are currently in to it and maybe add another fish or two.
I really want to get another red tailed shark
I tried to have one whn I started but I didn't know what I was doing and he died :(.

Then maybe I'll use the 5.5 tank I have and set up a small glow fish tank. That would be cool :)
