guys,
I know you have probably faced this question before, but here it is again.

What do i clean my new acrylic tank with? I know i don't want to put any chemicals on it, but what type of sponge or cloth do I clean it with?

Also if i get any scratches into it, how do I get them out?

thanks
Jason

warm water, and a cheese cloth should do fine...terry cloth would do fine as well, but tends to leave a bit of lint.

if you do encounter scratching, acrylic buffers can polish/buff out any scratches.

cleaning the inside can be done with an acrylic safe magfloat for everyday maintenance. a plastic, acrylic safe scraper, and a regular paper towel for tougher algae. and i've found that using white/blue floss can be used to scrub really tough algae off.
