hi guys,

i just wanna know what is the best paint remover out there to be use for the tank that is not poisonous.. i was thinking to remove the paint while the tank is running..

need your help guys..
 
are you removing the paint with water in the tank?

just give your tank a hows your father with methylated spirits or turpentine and wash it all off. metho dissolves very fast just wash off the residue.
 
i agree on the razorblade plus elbowgrease. though im not really sure on the toxicity of other stuff but i wouldnt risk it on a running tank. IMO
 
Wait..you are talking about the aquarium background being painted right? If yes the use a razor blade.
 
Go to your diy store and in the paint dept. see if you can pick up a thing called a window scraper which is basically a plastic handle with a stanley knife blade fitted
