I recently bought a used tank, and it has calcium on the glass. I've tried vinger it didn't work, I've also tried lemon juice and baking soda and it still did not remove it. When I scraped with razor blade still did not work.
Any suggestions what I can do to remove it?
 
We had this thread recently has contains a couple of commercial products you havent tried.

 
You need to let these products sit on the glass for some time( 20-30 minutes minimum) before wiping or washing off before you conclude they don't work. That said, if the calcium has been there for a long time, it can etch into the glass and it will never get clear. I have some tanks like that. I just make the hazy side the back of the tank. ;) (y)
