Tank Cleaning

Post by Huntley15 » Mon Aug 03, 2015 5:57 pm

So I have a 20g tank that needs to be cleaned, I haven't put any crabs in their yet so would it be safe to clean the tank with Windex?? :?

I would use 50/50 vinegar & water. :) Don't have to worry about residual chemicals. If you do use Windex, I'd rinse it very well afterwards.

I use diluted white vinegar for all my tank cleaning too. If it's really nasty, you can use 10:1 water:bleach. Rinse well and let air dry.
