Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Berded dragon LIME tank!!
I just recently purchased a 55 gallon tank from a guy and the tank has lime build up on it where he had kept turtles in it. I have tried CLR on it and a razor blade to scrap the lime off but it seems to not wanna go away! Any1 have a suggestion on what might possibly help us out on removing this  stuff!

Not trying to be a smart a$$ but you should just give up and go buy a new one or you can go buy a 4 x 8 sheet of melamine for $25 and build 1. I dont understand how people think they are saving money when you have to clean something for hours or whatever the case. I have found that it is always better to just suck it up and buy the right or best thing in the first place.

I was gonna call it quits and juts buy a new one if this stuff doesnt come off an just make the 55 gallon the tank we take with us to shows to sell our babies in..more room than a 20 gallon anyway.

Vinegar is a good way to get rid of hard water stains. Not sure about lime stains, but it's worth a shot!

That was a great deal on a 55 gallon with a stand and defintly worth the time to clean up. I had a 29 gallon with the same stain and i used a brand new razor and a majic eraser. The tank looks like new. I did use about five razors, they dull out quickly.

How about that Lime-Away stuff or any products for showers? Many of them are made to eliminate hard water stains.

I have had some dragons that have lived for years in a 55 with no problems at all. 75 or 100 would add more room but it's not necessary IMO.
If you can't save the 55 for a dragon you might be able to use it for feeders???
