| Re: Cloudy Glass i have heard of sum cases were the salt mix will harden on surfaces if not mixed with enough current. with that said do you have power heads moving water around? otherwise im kinda out of clues!

| Re: Cloudy Glass Is this a crusty line at the water line or a white film? If crusty, try soaking a paper towel with the vinegar (don't mix it with water) & let it sit on the glass for a while. Vinegar is a very weak acid to begin with & diluting it makes it even weaker.
