    Depends how deep they are, i hear there are some buffing solutions that will fix it... cheap substitution would be like toothpaste( for light scratches) For deep ones however I've seen that thouse solutions tend to weaken the glass... but As for doing it with a tank full of water and critters I dont really know.

    I just started reading up on this stuff as of a few days ago ( got a few scratches in my tank and wanted to get rid of them as well) Gonna follow this thread for sure, Good luck!

    scratches?

    im my tank as long as i have the glass cleaned on the inside this is with a tank full of water that when cleaned properly you really cant see the scratches unless you have hundred and hundreds of scratches then i suggest getting a new tank
