id clean the inside of your aquarium with AQUARIUM PHARMACEUTICALS EASY GLASS CLEANER. its FISH SAFE. just do a quick clean. nothing major is needed. just remember never use any harsh cleaners such as windex....chlorine...javex..etc..... you reall dont need to clean it that much. what kind of substrate are u going to use. some advice......it may cost more for live sand but go for it. im learning the hard way, dont use cc. major nitrate factory. what do you have in ur filter . ull prob have to upgrade a bit. give us some more info and we can help alot better!
Good Luck
Just let us know if u need any more help . we love to see more people getting into the hobby. its really great and rewarding and like 100x nicer and more interesting than fresh water!
