vinegar residue

AndynSarah · 07/23/2007, 07:28 PM

Recently cleaned out a fish tank that wasn't being used with vinegar, was told that it was ok to use when cleaning a tank as to not leave soap residue in there. the bucket we had water in that was used to rinse out the rag with vinegar was empited and dried out. If the bucket was completely dry would there be any residue left over in the bucket, and would that residue be harmful to corals, we did a fresh water dip and a gentle toothbrush scrub on some star polyps and a colony of zoas to get rid of some pesky green hair algea that was on them, and now 2 days later the Zoas aren't open still and the stars are not even trying to come out, did I hram the coral or are they still mad about the fresh water dip?
Thanks
Andy

i can't answer your question but I can comment on your tag line. We had a 5 day power outage last year in the Seattle area and more than a few people died from running their generator indoors
