i have the 360.. acrylic safe... and i look to the side.. and it scratches.. i dont kno if its the inside part or the outa side of the tank... any ideas how to solve it?

 

[bigarn]

Are you getting sand particles in it?

 

[mikegray]

no there is no sand in tank yet... lol
the felt side for the outside is really soft.. i doubt thats scratching it.. the inside one is pretty dam rough........but its scrylic safe..

Mike I had the same experience. I was as careful as can be not to scratch but failed. It sucks, sorry.

Are you guys using those little optional socks you can get? They are like a mesh sock that slides over the part that goes on the inside of the tank.

 

[holloway]

Yes.

Thats why i got a glass tank. Its nearly impossible to scratch glass. You can take a razor blade and clean the glass and the glass wont even scratch then.

I know it dont help now but should always clean verticaly, up and down. never side ways because if it does scratch they dont show up as much. I keep a algea pad on my magfloat. Sliced it about a 1/4 in thick and keep it there. Helps clean the scratches too.
