you sure do !
You have to realize that I have 5 tanks.....seahorses, and at one time a stingray....built a sump/fuge....added a monstrous skimmer, SO ontop of trying to help others, I have been very busy with set ups and adding better equipment to my existing set ups
I also have had my share of issues that I have had to ask for help with too

So I'm wondering what the OP was really asking? I saw alot of good advice on how to take care of the glass and how to reduce the nitrates that are feeding the algae. Maybe he was looking for something else?

OMG you guys are too funny. I guess the truth hurts-I hate it when people cant take criticism for something they are doing. If he had other plans for those fish he just had to say so. That puffer will be as wide as that tank before long. lol

I dunno, but I am still perplexed as to why it is hard to use a magnet cleaner on a bowfront. I use one on my tiny 16 gallon with no issues.
It just seems to skip over a lot for me.....I have recently tried a smaller one as Henry suggested, and that seems to work a little better.....

I have turned it every way imagineable....I do also have the JBJ cube, and don't even bother trying to clean the corners with it...I use the brush for that
