Clean a spanish galleon

Afternoon folks.

I really need to take out my sunken spanish galleon model and clean.Bit of algae starting to build up.

I was going to use a toothbrush and just declorinated water to clean. Should i use anything else such as a fungicide?? Worried i may corrode the model or cause chemicals to leak out when i put back into tank.

Thanks

toothbrush and declorinated water should be good I wouldnt use ANY checmicals....what kind of algae? brown, green, white, etc? got a pic of it? i love the sunken ships in tanks

also remember, your beneficial bacteria adhears itself to decorations so sometimes over cleaning things can be a cause of a mini cycle
