The tank is empty as of now and I planned to clean it out with bleach before I set it back up, CERIUM OXIDE is supposed to work and be safe for fish and wildlife, Tooth whiteing toothpaste aslo has removed minor scratches. Time & Labor are not a concern at this point I have most my $$ wrapped up in a stand built to fit this tank like a glove. I just didnt bother to put a light on it till I was more than half way done. It may just go to a glass shop.....I really dont know what to do either deal with the scratches or go without I guess.
plan to do a finger nail test today.
