[jw1977]

My tank is 5 months old and i'm starting to get some algae that i can's get off with my magnet. Is such thing as a scraper that gets harder algae off the glass?

I use a clean razor on glass. just be carefull not to cut your silicone (the plastic widget handles for scraping paint off glass are great if you have a hard time holding onto the razor (like $1.00 at a hardware store)

I sent them an email to find out where in the US I could purchase one and the cost in dollars.

Good news. Google Algae Free, LLC. They are the company importing to US. I just placed an order for a few.

I have been using one from algea free LLC for the last couple of months and I can't say enough good about it. It gets all of the algea off my glass including coraline and I don't have to get wet or risk damaging any of my corals plus it has actually cut down on the speed which the algea grows back it takes about 2-3 weeks now to get the same growth I would clean off once a week with just the mag float and a handle scraper.

This Easy Blade is unbelievable, I ordered one, based on a couple of reviews, I was very very skeptical.
I got mine yesterday, glued it to my mag float last night, and then decided to try it today. My tank is a 220 and see through on all 4 sides, it usually takes me a couple of hours, to clean my tank. Not to count the rocks I usually knock over and the drips of water all over the outside glass and floor.
I am so happy, it took probably about an hour and I had some hard coralline growth in the corners, it took it right out. My family says the tank looks almost as clean as the day I got it. I take my hat off to whoever invented it, it is really a life saver. Great job

What site did you go to? The site I visited said it would fit the mag-float 350. That's the large size and you and I use the medium. I want to order one too but I haven't read what you have. Please pm me or send email to: metweezer@aol.com

I use a kent glass scraper. I can clean my whole tank 4 sides and bottom in like 10 minutes with the thing.

I have mine glued to the mag float 125, it hangs over the sides, but it still worked great.
