The scratching that was being done by the male Blue Throat trigger have been dealt with....but there is a constant accumulation of assorted scratches caused by the fish and urchins. I have not spent much time working on them, but have all the tools necessary to remove any scratches that truly bother me.

The part about the scratches that tends to bother me the most is that the scratches provide a foothold for algae/coraline to grow. The mag cleaner doesn't remove the algae from the scratches and I have to reach into the tank and manually rub the algae out off scratches.

I've also found that really small scratches just tend to go away on their own through regular mag float cleaning.
