Default Removing Dried Algae and Lime Scale

Hi,

I've just moved house and I'm ready to restart my Juwel 180.

The juwel has a heater filter tower in the corner which now has
unsightly dried algae in the gap between the tower and glass. Anyone
dealt with similar without having to re glue the tower ?

Also, the glass generally has traces of dried algie and limescale
which are proving difficult to remove with a cloth and water. Anyone
know of a safe fish friendly method of cleaning the glass prior to
adding gravel, plants and water and beginning cycling ?

Calcium and Lime remover sold in grocery stores or even white vinegar
or lemon juice. The calcium and lime and rust remover is safe to use,
if you rinse the tank well after use, its just fine....
