120g Vinegar Bath

[Bck2hobby]

Morning all,
I am about to give my 120g tank -48*24*24- a vinegar bath. I plan on filling it with tap water then adding the vinegar. The question i have, how much vinegar should i dump into it, and for how long?
Thank you

Vinegar is cheaper at smart and final in the gallon form.

And if u have Costco they have 5L bottles cheap. I dump the whole bottle topped off with water and a power head, let it run for a few day and no scrapping needed just drain and wipe down with a pad. Rinse and good to go!
