New dirty tank cleaning

[Brizo]

Advice and tips on cleaning a 55 I just got for free. My uncle used it too grow plants in it. Not fun plants.. Regular ones. Not sure if he ever used any chemicals.

Thanks

Clean it with a vinegar and water solution.

Okay that's exactly what I did for my 55 long but someone told me tht wasn't an adequate way too clean. But it worked for me an my tank I haven't had a single death. Not too bad for not properly cycling my tank either.(such a stressful bonehead mistake that ill meet repeat)

I got a cheap 29 gallon encrusted with algae and general good stuff, all I did was put a cap full of clorox and scrubbed the hell out of it. Then I rinsed it for a day and a half. It worked great but it was a lot of effort, there are probably better ways of cleaning.

good old fashioned elbow grease, just watch the silicone sealant
