I don't know about "tar" but my Nova gets pretty grubby from print developer and I use Steradent denture cleaner. Warm water, and put plenty in and leave for a few hours.

I heard that brands of EP3/EP2 chemistry (e.g. Champion/May & Baker) that claimed greatly reduced tarring contained an additive, ethylene glycol (antifreeze). Whether this would redissolve oxidised CD3/CD4 (tar), I don't know. Try it? What are the tanks made of?

As far as I know they are made from acrylic plastic sheeting bonded together with silicone. That stuff is pretty tough.
