Hazing/Cloudiness on a Glass Tank

[ExoticEctotherms]

Hi,

I recently got a second hand tank and the top quarter of the glass all around the inside of the tank has a cloudiness to it. I am assuming it is because the original owner let the water get low without refilling it promptly.

The question is...how do I clean this off? I tried a weak bleach/water mix to no avail. Any suggestions????

Thanks.

Vinegar and water.

keep the glass wet and use a razor blade , the haze is probably hard water stains

I was thinking of trying vinegar and water. I've heard of using it for scaling in a salt water tank, but wasn't sure if it would work. I'll let you guys know.

If this doesn't work...then i'll bust out the razor blades.

Thanks guys.

Even just straight vinegar. It's cheap enough. Just make sure you wash it really well.

I ended up using straight vinegar, which worked for most of it....but had to use a razor blade for the stubborn patches. It is now well rinsed and ready for setup.

Thanks everyone!
