there is coralline algae growth on the front glass panel of my tank. Its small but it can spread and a magfloat just doesn't do the job.

An old credit card makes a really good scraper. If you have an acrylic tank be very careful. Plastic draws coraline for somwe reason. Urchins eat it. whereever they go is blank of all types of algae.

This is one of my tools I use....Blade is replaceable , and the Kent scrapper is only around 10 bucks..These type of tools are very handy to have, much quicker cleaning. I also have one from another manufacturer with a long handle for the harder spots to reach. As a tank matures cleaning coralline becomes a daily chore.........
