    Fresh water should be enough if the tank wasn't stored with an open lid. If it was, then salt, vinegar etc. would be a good choice. I would try to stay away from soap. I personally just bought a 100gallon tank and cleaned it woth vinegar, washed it with freshwater multiple times and left it to dry for several weeks before using.
    Overdoing things is not bad; underdoing is
