  • magnetic algae scrubbers

    i was wondering if anyone have tried anything other than "mag float". i've been using the mag float for a little while now but it seems like i would have to go over the area quite i few times before it completely clean. is there anything better than mag float? i dont like how i have sand substrate and the mag float gets caught in it also. what would you recommend? i've heard a few good things about "algae free" but id like to hear your experience with what youre using.

    oh and this is for glass btw

        Trust me, it punks mag float bad. I would say they are 5 times as strong.

        Just go up in tank thickness is you want something stronger.

        How thick is your glass?

          I agree... the biggest mag float doesn't hold a dime to the smaller algae free.

          I personally rather use the scraper stick.

            best way to get a mag float to work is small little circle motion... Ya know wax on wax off....

                Algae Free is 1000x better than ANY Mag Float. You get what you pay for.

                              Even on Amazon they're not that cheap. The last one I got was from BulkReefSupply.com
