corraline on glass

[mbrands]

What is the best method to remove small corraline algae pieces from the glass sides of my tank? I have an algae scrub brush (sort of like a brillo pad) that doesn't do anything.
Thanks!!

I use a razor blade to clean my tank and it gets everything off. Just don't use a blade on acrylic.

I thought I'd heard of using a razor blade before, but wanted to check. Thanks mudplayerx!

This may sound silly, but make sure you wipe your razor blade off really well after every use or it will start going rusty and get warped after just one use.

Use Stainless steel blades. Sharper and last longer and will resist rust better.:yes:

I use the stainless steel blades but one night I didn't wipe the blade dry and that saltwater ate that blade like it was breakfast.
