    Default cleaning dried coralline algae

    what is the best way to clean dried coralline algae off acrylic?

    just bought the 28 hex from brewercm and I will make it into a mantis tank.

    THANKS!

    Fill it with warm water, add about a quart of white distilled vinegar and let it soak over night, it should come off easily the next day.

    Don,

    Do not use a razor blade to scap with. It will scratch it. An old credit card or drivers license works good.
