Has anyone seen replacement blades sold for other applications that could be puchaced off the self locally?

I found the thing I was originally looking for, because I had one in the FW tank and just used it one day connected to my large outside magnet in the reef. It was AWESOME. I went looking everywhere for it, including online, but now somehow it popped up again, so I am going to try it once more. I'll let you know how well it works this time.

Rust
 
I've had the easy blade for about 2 weeks now, works GREAT.

However I'm seeing orange RUST creeping out of the sides of where the blade is sandwiched and around where the plastic screw is.

That cant be good?!!

I don't leave mine in the tank for fear of rusting.

I have two magnets, one with the blade attachment that I use weekly, and one without the attachment that I leave in the tank.

I also take the blade off and dry it before storing it.

Anybody found where to buy replacement blades? I remember the instructions said a brand name but I can't remember.

I just picked up one of these babies the other day and WOW! I should have listened earlier, this thing works absolute wonders. My tank is sparkling clean once again!

Anyone find replacement blades yet?

The only replacement blades I have found are by MO. Try Ocean Aquatics.

Frag Factory carries them too.

I got my replacement blades from reefwerkz :biggrin:

Stainless steel replacement blades should be available soon.

My problem is that after a while, it's hard to get the blade to sit flush all the way across. Right now, only half of the blade is against the glass, the other half is slightly lifted up aka useless.

Even with the adjustable nylon screw, there's only so much you can 'wiggle' the blade the blade. So that kinda sux.

Other than that, it is still easier to use it in addition to the regular scrapers.

I got mine from OA, and they sell the blades as well.
