I have removed all of the plants from my planted aquarium and detached all equipment so it's not really a 'planted aquarium' anymore.
My question is, what is the best way to remove bacteria/fungus/parasites (assuming they are in there) from an aquarium without causing the silicone to become damaged?
Products like Interpet 'Pond Disinfectant' or bleach seem to be inappropriate and hazardous to use in an aquarium since they can interact with the properties in the silicone, causing it to become weak.
With this in mind, should I scrub the aquarium with a simple flannel and soap or is there another way of disinfecting?
