Starting over

[AGWL]

Hi!

My 60g mixed-reef crashed about 6 months ago for an unknown reason (you can look at my previous posts if you're really interested). After several attempts of trying to resurrect the darn thing (cleaning, regular water changes, running carbon, etc) I tried to start adding back in some livestock, which died within an hour. I tried several times and everything always died. I also sent off a water sample to Triton. Results are attached.

I have decided to completely scrap everything in the tank and start over. New rock, new sand, etc.

My question is: how do I best clean/disinfect this tank? Vinegar? Bleach? Nothing?

Thoughts?

i checked ur other post it probalbly because too many things died at the sametime(anemones can have devasting effects when mass killed)

clean it with a sponge and razors works likee a charm

sometimes (unfortunately) starting from scratch is the best plan. I would clean the tank with vinegar.

ETA - for some reason I can’t get the report to open on my phone.
