I have a 55 gallon fish tank that has not been used in a while.
The glass inside it is covered with calcium and mineral deposits 
from hard water. What is the best way to clean the tank out. If I
uses some sort of chemical will traces of it be left and kill the
fish later? How do you properly clean and rinse it without dragging the
entire thing outside?
 
                                  Thanks
				  Kathy
