I think I'm sold, tired of replacing mag floats, cheaper in the long run with just replacing pads on the other. |

![]() I was using a scraper and sea urchin for the stubborn coraline algae. The blue linkia and marble starfish help a bit too.
$147 for a magnet is pretty steep. I wouldn't want to spend more than $60

![]() Tiger shark is more than strong enough and it's $100. I recall seeing it at BRS for like $80 or something. Something to consider if you order from them and had an excuse to add a magnet cleaner (won't add on to shipping).

![]() +1 on tiger shark. Very strong but not strong enough to remove coraline.

![]() +2 on the Tiger Shark, I have one for the 165 gal (5/8" glass) and man what a workout you get. This thing is strong, you can hold the outside part 2 - 3" away from the tank & the inside part will still more with it.
I will never buy another Mag Float ever again.

![]() If you had a stronger magnet, the same pad would do more work than with a weaker one no?
Just looked. I have an extra tiger shark and an extra great white here. I could ship em if anyone wants to pm a fair offer. |
