    I would suggest to try CLR (Calcium, Lime, Rust). I see infomercials on it on TV and it says it removes all of that stuff easily. After you use it though make sure you wash out the tank REALLY well because theres probably some harmful chemicals in it that could hurt your beardie.

    Yeah CLR, followed by copious rinsing, then more copious rinsing. Then rinse again.

    A razor blade should take it right off. If not, try scrubbing it with white vinegar. Just make sure you rinse well before putting your beardie back in.
