shop strength paper towels.
I have a high end razor scraper, never use it....
discus slime up the glass pretty quick.
You want to wipe down all the inside of the glass pretty regularly. I see a build up start after a couple days.

I've always used a nylon scrubby but I think I'll give Neptune's Rags in a Box a try.

I use one of these sponge type cleaners on a pole when I wipe down the tank on my daily water changers. It's quick and I can keep my hands dry. Once a week I use paper towels and get it really clean. Sam's Club paper towels hold together. I bought one of the "flipper" brand magnets and used it once.

Left over pieces of poret. I cut them into a sponge sized rectangle. Work great for wiping glass

Ok thanks guys for the suggestions
I started using the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser ORIGINAL version. Great on acrylic tanks!
I use a piece cut off from the roll of filter floss I have around, works great
I just use a plain old sponge, probably something like 4"x3"x1".
I keep two long handled scrubbers... I use the "clean" one all the vertical glass (I need the long handle cuz I can't reach the back of the aquarium glass without it), and I use the other "dirty" one on the floor of the BB tank and around the bottom corner edges where the two panes of glass meet. This way the scrubber I use for the sides of the tank never picks up debris from the floor of the tank and never scratches the glass. When I had sand I used two as well, one for the sides of the glass and one for the very bottoms of the sides where it meets the sand and might pick up particles.
i just use a paper towel. its fast and easy. For deeper tanks I sometimes use a brush.

I also use filter floss. I have tried scrubbers microfiber pads. But nothing beats good old filter floss.
What do you guys use for a deep tank like 150 gallon deep?
