Been there done that. Good luck.

Just to show you guys how bad it was.
It covered my ZEOvit Reactor flow knob, my heater, my skimmer, and my rocks.
The rocks are also covered underneath.

*WARNING: GRAPHIC*. Please do not look if you have a week stomach.

Update!

Made the mistake of running Tap/Vinegar through my system for more than a few days.. A massive bacteria bloom happened.. Didn't cross my mind that vinegar = carbon = bacteria food. My bad. Drained, cleaned all the disgusting algae/mold deposits building up. Completely disassembled all my of equipment and cleaned it thoroughly with bleach and water.

Today got my tank down outside and gave it a nice bleach wash as well, including through the plumbing. Going to add tap water once more with some dechlorinator before draining and setting it up to begin my restart! Everything ALMOST looks as good as new. I'll be fixing the big paint chip on the back black background tomorrow!
