This is a cheap, bio-friendly and effective means of cleaning just about anything to do with your aquarium.
There is no set measurements, but the idea is the higher the vinegar to water ratio, the stronger it will be and the quicker it will work.
I often do a good 3:1 Water:Vinegar soak for a couple hours followed by a light brushing on any item I sell and they usually come out looking spotless.
The other side of the coin is that vinegar works the same way on just about everything; it's corrosive.
So don't leave things running in it for too long, especially if you go 100% vinegar just in case.
