[AquaticLife] Assesment of a roughly 10 year old tank…
Before you do anything with the tank, fill it with water and let it set a spell. This will allow you to determine if the tank leaks. If it does leak, you will face a choice of whether you wish to repair it, or just divert it to another use. If you divert it, do what is needed for that use. If you repair it, clean thoroughly and then repair.
If the tank does not leak, clean thoroughly. I don’t know of this Bioclear you speak, but I would use bleach and salt as my main cleaning agents, and, if there are mineral deposits, vinegar, and water.
As for fish, the goldfish would be out. The tank is too small for a goldfish of any size. Guppies would be good. Dwarf gouramis could be another choice. Maybe a few white clouds. Whatever fish you decide upon, they should be few and hardy. With the small amount of water the tank holds, it can be rather unstable.
