A little water and vinegar ... good for you on the freebies!
I found a 10 gallon at Goodwill, they let me take it out back and fill it with water, it is fine!
Rinse rinse rinse... also add some bleach or vinegar, then rinse rinse rinse some more. I JUST did that yesterday!! Got two free tanks! I think I know why they were getting rid of them.... lets just say, I almost gagged a few times.
:lol:
Good luck!! I LOVE finding things in attics and basements, I found an old aquarium hood that I had forgotten about!
I personally prefer not to use bleach, because it can get absorbed by the silicone, especially in older tanks where the integrity of the silicone is in question.
Just pour a half cup of vinegar into 3 or 4 cups of water and get to work.
If it's a glass tank, Magic Erasers can be your best friend! But they scratch plastic really bad Saved a TON of time on a 3 gallon bowl I had kept plants in for the last few years.
Bob 4 bucks for a 10 gallon is awesome! Our local Good Will won't even let you plug things in to test them, they're real stuck up about it.
