I've been using Windex for 10 years, no issues

ya brad i've been using windex up until recently, i noticed that when the front panel gets bad water stains the windex kind of smears it, vinegar and water doesn't leave any noticable streaks as i can tell

drock169 i noticed you said you use newspaper, i've heard of this several times, i'd imagine the ink wouldn't release as people wrap there live rock/stock in it for shipping all the time without ill effect-

Is using news paper an uncommon thing for cleaning glass? I've been using news paper since I was a wee little lad .....

First time I heard of the newspaper thing

I've used newspapers for most glass cleaning like mirrors, car windshield, windows, and exterior of the fish tank. It works great for not leaving streaks. I aim the windex away from the tank and spray a bit of it on the newspaper before wiping it on the fish tank.
