we don't think the mineral deposits can hurt them when we needed tanks we got a few with some deposit rings you can kinda see them after we washed them some tanks are so bad no matter how much you scrub, it's still yucky we've seen some where almost half the tank is white or opaque the ones we have only have rings 1in or less from the top and 1.5in or less thick, and they are mostly not whitish anymore just kinda blurred -- ron & traci things-that-squeak
