Two cloths. Wipe the tank with one moistened with tap water, then dry and buff with the second.

I use tap water on a soft cloth and a california water blade (squeegee).

I try to avoid it but does anyone know the effects of using a product like windex on there tank glass?

I am not sure what the effects would be but I am pretty sure they would not be good. It is not advised to use any form of cleaner on your tank glass. Vinegar and water is the best.

I've only ever used Windex. Just make sure you spray the windex onto the paper towel and not directly at the glass as the overspray will get into the water. I also spray the paper towel away from the tank as well for the same reason.

I, too, spray Windex onto paper towel away from the tank and have not had any problems.

windex for me as well. I spray at the very bottom of the glass and have never had a problem.... yet!
