Hi, whats the best way to clean an opti white tank of mineral deposit along the waterlevel line and how to clean glass lily pipes.
Someone mentioned a vinegar but i am guessing its not good for a running tank with a livestock.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Samc. But what about the waterline in the tank with the livestock?

drain the water about 30%, dampen a cloth with vinegar, not wet. wipe off the deposits. dampen another cloth with water and wipe it clean, then fill it up.

vinegar is a mild acid so a tiny bit in your tank will lower the ph a bit, its not poisonous specifically...
