I'd simply use a diluted vinegar/water mix to soak, and then scrub down the tank.

either of the above should do it....

I agree. Use vinegar and run the tank to get rid of all the scale and any coraline algae. Then, use a small amount of bleach with water and run the tank to disinfect the inside.

I actually have a video of the process. Check it out if you like.

I just finished cleaning a second hand 120 and soaking in vinegar and using the magic eraser (plain one without the cleaner added) and it worked like a charm
