Acrylic Tank Owners...

What do you guys use to wipe down and polish the front of your tanks? I was told your not suppose to use any kind of chemical etc. Does anyone use anything to wipe down the front of their tanks, other than just water? Have you had any ill effects?

Saltwater is terrible for clouding up on the outside, my green eel pours gallons down the side of the tank when he is gulping down fish. I wish i have a freaking squeegee!

Home Depot has a cleaning kit that costs less than $10.........

NOVUS. And nothing else. Covers any depth of scratch you can imagine, and if you cut the Step 1 50/50 with water, it works great to wipe off fingerprints/water drips.

Slight thread jack. Anyone know the name of the product to remove scratches from the inside of the tank, with the fish still inside.

I have always used the stuff you get from Petsmart. I think it is made by API.

For a DIY solution, white vinegar mixed with water will help.
