I have a 40 Gallon Midwest Tropical Aquarium for sale. It's made from acrylic and the dimensions are 60" H x 24" W x 18" D. It's been used for freshwater fish over the years, but could probably be used for saltwater as well. It includes an air pump,canister filter, gravel and wood decoration. I need to check on the light and a heater. I don't remember if I just turned it off or it doesn't work. The light is a standard fluorescent light from Home Depot so probably $15 to replace. The water level is low in the picture, but when it's full you don't see the waterline.  Anyways, asking $400 and local pick up in the Far North Dallas area, less than 10 minutes from Dallas North Aquarium.View attachment 5772
 
How would one clean a tank like that.  It's beautiful, just not sure how to clean it without scratching it.

I'm totally unfamiliar with those tanks, but if it's glass you go with a double edged razor blade and don't worry about scratching it.  If it's acrylic you use an original (non scented, nothing else in it, etc) Magic Eraser.  Magic Erasers are really quite magical in that they'll even take off light coralline growth but won't scratch acrylic so long as you don't trap a grain of sand.
