I clean my tank with a scour pad and am seeing more and more scratch marks in the glass. Is there a way to remove these scathes or am I stuck with them? The tank is made by ALL-Glass.

Get a different pad--one that is safe for glass. Make sure no sand is picked up by the pad, as this will scratch glass easily.
Scratches can be repaired, but you have to empty the tank. Methods include a filler, which sometimes leaves a nboticable wavy look to the glass, and buffing, which works well on shallow scratches.

Got any suggestions? I use the same type in my smaller tank and have had no problems. But my smaller tank has no sand, it has CC instead. I just wondered if I give it a good rub down with some type of soft cloth this could at least hide the scatches some.
