Cleaning viv glass

Hello everyone, I'm getting a corn for xmas, (yay!) and I'm using a viv I've had from the garage, since I was little, from a previous reptile. I cleaned it out extremely thoroughly with a diluted bleach solution and rinsed, but my question is, what can I use to get the water spots off the glass? I'm assuming glass cleaner is unfit for the inside surface. It's not a huge deal, but I want to marvel at the splendor of my new pet! Thanks for helping out a beginner!
 
distilled water. i use it on my vivs. it doesnt leave water marks cause its not hard water like tap or filtered water. i only use it in a small srpay to wipe down glass for better viewing.
 
For those interested, I found the best thing I had available was actually just a dry paper towel. After trying the vinegar, and "drying" it with a dry one, I found out that just rubbing the glass with a dry paper towel took them right off. Some were a little more stubborn, but you can feel the texture of the glass with the towel, and it goes from slightly toothy to nice and smooth and clear, with a little scrubbing.
 
ummm .... you know what pro window cleaners use? newspaper ... It works REALLY well! Also try an el cheapo microfiber cloth ... good luck!
