I just bought a used 80 gal tank off craigslist. The fellow is a long time fish keeper and is just ready to move on. The tank appears to be in great shape. He has a magnum 350, 2 aquaclear 70s, and undergravel filtration as well as a Lifegard ql-8 UV sterilizer. Pictures to follow. Right now It is still in the van and I trying to figure what to do next.
His water was very clear, with a few healthy appearing cichlids. There were a few spots of black algae. We rinsed out the tank with a hose before leaving his house. My question is do I need to do anything further before I bring it in the house.i.e. clean it with bleach or vinegar or something?
I will try to find information on the web, but if you have ideas let me know!
Thanks
