    Wow! Yeah it looks pretty rough to say the least. Glad you're fixing it back up and not getting rid of it. I'd start with a BIG water change!

    wow, that looks , to be blunt, awful. thats a real shame callum. but they can get forgotten when things like that are going on, taking our attention away. what all did you actually have in there? any fish, inverts? best of luck with the resurrection. i look forward to the after. :)

    I would almost say to get all the good living things including rock and all out of there and in a rubbermaid container or some other tank and give it a back to new cleaning and scrubbing and put mostly new water and start putting things back in - sounds easier than it will be but I think at this point thats the best solution
