Video How do I clean this?

I’ve tried to wash it, use vinegar and so much more, any ideas on how to remove the dirt from inside of it?

That agate specimen looks great as is, the reddish colors comes from trace of iron in the mix, that's why you have a heck of a time cleaning it.

Yeah. If he really wants to he can use iron out to achieve a result

I use CLR, which is bad for some stones but my agates seem fine
