salt creep on nano hood

[palumbo]

Does anyone have a good method of getting salt creep off of the acrylic covering the lights? The lighting in my tank is getting slightly dull from the salt crust building up.

mine slides out and i just wash it off > dry it > slide it back in
i would think you could do this with any

Mine is screwed on

 

[tuningvis]

hmmm you could just take of the light... and wipe it off with a wet towel

I just screw mine off every month or so and wipe in down as tuningvis said. Just make sure if you use a cleaning agent like windex that you rince it with water. I also wipe the outside off whenever I have the hood up.

I always used a bit of vinegar ,and warm water solution. Just wet a wash cloth, and wiped clean let dry before turning on .

I use the vinegar-water method at work while cleaning the glass on freshwater tanks, but I wasn't sure if this was safe for saltwater. I'm paranoid
Thanks though, I'll use the vinegar and unscrew the top every so often

Vinigar won't hurt anything. It not like your pouring it in the tank! Right?

True. I have been known to screw things up because of one simple mistake though
