Fresh start.

Im new to the world of marine aquariums. Have just purchased a second hand 3x2x2 tank with sump.

Any ideas on the best way to give it a good safe clean.

Is your tank glass or acrylic? try a vinegar rinse...Some white vinegar with mostly all RO water and a clean sponge. The other way (for acrylic) is a magic eraser with RO water.

Its a glass tank. Yer i read about using vingar, but someone else said best to use water only. I just thought theres got to be something to add to make sure any unwanted bacteria is killed off.
