I get mine off with a razor blade. I can't think of any other way.

I hate to jump in on your thread and go off topic, but how long has your tank been set up when your coraline started growing?

One of these days, you will wish otherwise......... Somedays I hate the stuff. I have just gave up on this end of the tank
I think I may try one of the Magfloat razor attachments. But I do like the Kent scrappers too........

Thanks, do not mean to jump the Coralline thread....
Here are fairly two recent shot left and right views. The tank has a large table near that makes a straight on shot hard without moving the table. Too late at night to look in my drive for better shots, these where from testing bulb colors a while back.
The Spaghetti to the lower left of the tank is now gone, he was shading out too many Zoas.
Sorry for the reflections in the glass too...Oh BTW where in MD Crypt?.

Strangely enough I just made a razor blade scraper for my tank today because of the coraline. If you want to be really cheap, but effective. Cut a 30" piece of 3/4" pvc then use a hacksaw to make a 45 degree notch about 1" from the end. Slip a straight razor in the notch and away you go. I have extra 3/4" pvc hanging around from the tank plumbing projects anyway, so it cost me $1.08 for the 12 pack of straight razors from the dollar store.

Not a bad idea!

I dont bother cleaning the ides of the tank, only the front, and if you clean it weekly it will not get out of hand
+1.
keeping the front clean is what most people do. often daily. but if weekly is your thing...than that too.

Still not as good as the magfloat razor, the magfloat scaper would make short work out of that end of your tank big. I had section like that under my HOB overflow took all of 10 seconds to scrap it off.
Thanks ,I guess I need to get one.
