They sell cleaning agents that are supposed to rid things of smoky smell. Not sure if there safe for fish but you could clean them with viniger after your done. I think you would be able to find it at wal mart

nice
I would just use vinegar and water. Avoid caustic chemicals that may or may not eat your silicone.
Well you're in the cold like me, but what I do in the summer time is take it outside, splash vinegar all over the tank, and stuff, scrub with a sponge, and then just rinse everything really well.
Since it's winter you might want to try a similar operation in the bathtub, I guess.
Probably just scrub with vinegar, then scrub twice as well with water.
