Scratches inside of my new acrylic tank. any advice?

[menace78]

I recently setup my 1st acrylic display tank and guess I won't be using a magfloat cleaner anymore.
Looks like a pice of crushed coral got between the scrubber and before i noticed it, the acrylic now has a verry visable 6" squaggaly scratch on the inside.

Question is, Is there any way to fix this without draining the tank?
any buffing/sanding paper that would be ok to use in tank?
I'd hate to waist 60+ gallons of water and posibly restart a cycle.

Any advice would be apreciated and thanx.

go to rocklear wood working in tukwilla and buy their micro mesh kit start with the highest grit that will get the scratch out then step up a grit at a time. just put the micro mesh on your mag float and do it with your tank running. no neet to take any water out...
btw the kit is only 20 bucks....

you will have it fixed in 30 minutes....
