Default EASY BLADE attachment now at J&L

Just got one at J&L ( ya, I know OA has them too)http://www.jlaquatics.com/phpstore/s...t_ID=cl-mrzebl
Just tried it , man does this thing work GREAT!!!!!
$14.95 for the scraper, comes with one double sided blade, 5 pack replacement blades are $7.00.
I can't believe I have had a reef tank for years with out one! Anyone with a tall tank would be amazed.

Thanks for the tip. I will have to get one. I use a regular scraper attached to 1/4 pvc pipe to get the coraline algae my Tiger Shark can't get. The tank is 48" deep so it's a lot of work.
Will the blades rust if you leave the magnet float in the tank?
Tanks,
Shane

Tanks,

I used the same thing, since i got my easy blade you dont need the razor and stick combo.

Also if you take the magnet out of water, rinse and dry after the blade will last quite awhile.

I think just about everyone sells them now.

These things make life very easy. The best 15$ i ever spent! for the time it used to take me to clean those corners.
