I was wondering what everyone uses to clean the outside of the aquariums?
I am going to try and use windex but figured I would ask and see what everyone is using?
Thanks!

Canopy top and closed with no gaps, I use windex also. I spray it on the towel in the kitchen and then walk to the tank and wipe it.

when I had my open top 30 gallon, I used white vinegar and water.

.I just use a wet rag. Then I follow with a dry one. That works best for me, and I have no chance of contamination

We use 2 papertowels, one wet the other dry. Wipe w/ the wet one, and then wipe w/ the dry one to get all the salt film off.

Paper towels and regular towels,wet and dry are safest, but for cleaning salt crud on the glass, the vinegar works best-just remove the tops first!!
