    Vinegar works pretty well for cleaning mineral deposits.

    Scrub stubborn lime scale off with a Teflon-safe scouring pad that will not scratch aquarium glass, or use a razor blade to scrape it away.

    Apply a paste made from salt moistened with vinegar directly to any remaining lime scale. Allow to sit for an hour then rinse.

    Try using a vinegar soaked rag, it should work and I know it is used safely on aquariums for the white buildup. I don't think clr or lime away would be safe to use so I wouldn't suggest that in an animal enclosure.





    edit: oops, must have had this tab open for a few minutes, someone already said it.
