I have heard use bleach and water. The tank needs lots of cleaning because it has been in a shed for about 5 years and has lots of dirt and dust and i want to clean it very very good.
use a cap full of bleach for 5 gallons. use a scrub pad that will not scratch glass (make sure it is not acrylic) you can buy a scrub pad at almost any fish store or you can use a rag.
scrub hard and get it all out.
use warm water to rinse as this will get rid of the bleach.
enjoy your clean tank.
