Anybody know the best way to get corraline (among other things) off an acrylic tank without scratching it?

With some work, it will come off with the scrub pad for acrylic. There are also some scrapers that ar made from plastic.

It's all about the Kent Pro-scraper. Credit cards can scratch. Just watchit on the rounded corners.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I douched it with vinegar and scraped it a little and it came right off. Now it's taking a warm bath. I guess I get to buff it out this weekend.

For empty tank vinegar works the best. As a matter of fact you can fill the tank with water and pour some vinegar in it. Run a powerful powerhead overnight. It would do the trick.
