Just picked up this 40 long from a friend and I'm not sure what I want to do with it yet. It's old and has been used for FW, SW, and misc herps. Biggest issue is this stupid screen that spans about 1/3 of the top. I think it's after market but the screen seems to have been glued to the underside of the lip. The black bars on either end look like they should slide but the screen itself is stuck. I would REALLY like to take it off but don't want to damage the tank - advice? If it is part of the tank though, can anyone recommend how I can clean up the calcium / rust collected on it?
Thanks!
