probably water deposits/scale/lime/etc. vinegar should do it, especially on a rough cloth towell with some elbow grease. don't use other chemicals

Yeah i used vinegar, just a word of warning try and avoid sticking your head into the aquarium when cleaning with vinegar...

put a nice sharp razor blade on it

vinegar for sure. bleach would also work. just be sure to rinse the 15 good.

I've had good results using vinegar and a sharp razor blade.

Vinegar works good at removing mineral deposits because it is an acid.. Bleach is a base, good for sterilizing but not for removing minerals!!

scrape with a razor blade then scrub the rest off with vinegar
