ok i just go a aquarium that was used. and it has a water line stain on it. i need to get it cleaned. ive tried using white vinager and oxyclean. any other opinions.
hmmmm, I can't offer any other suggestions, I've always heard that vinegar is the best way to clean off water stain.
In Australia we have (had when I lived there) a product called CLR clear. The CLR stands for Calcium, Lime, Rust. I'm sure there's a product like that near you. Good luck,

I have one that is impossible to clean. It was used as a turtle tank so it has a waterline about half way up all around. I've used CLR, Lime Away, white vinegar, baking soda, soft scub, you name it. It simply will not go away. I guess I'll use it for mice. Good luck with yours
I've used EVERYTHING on my 20gal and nothing works. I have even tried using a razor with some progress, but it would probably take 48 solid hours to do it well, which is completely unreasonable. It has a thick white lining around the top from when it was used for fish and such and it is there to stay apparently. It disappears when I'm cleaning it, but comes back as it dries. I've cleaned it more times than I could count. I am definately open to anything anyone can tell me to clean that off though, it'd be a blessing.
Did you try using a razor (in one of those scraper handles to make it easier) after soaking the glass with a dish soap and water solution? It makes it slippery and easier to deal with.
Lie the tank on it's side (you'll have to do a side at a time) and pour enough coke on the side to cover it. Leave it overnight and wipe it down in the morning.
Muratic Acid.. Be very careful... Should pull any deposits off, just might be hard for you to find muratic acid, check pool supply stores.. Remember, if there is any water present before the application of acid there is going to be a very severe reaction.. Acid before water..
