125$? I did not know the price but for some people who really want something that will clean the glass automaticaly, that might be the only option. I too don't mind cleaning my glass as I have very little algae that build up on the glass. Too much algae on the glass = too much nutriment or nitrates/phosphates. That's where it should be controlled

$125 would be cheap, I'd pay that just for the novelty. I paid $80 for my non-automatic magnet cleaner.

Magfloats are fine for smaller tanks but for larger tanks with thicker glass than 1/4" you'll want the rare earth type with replaceable pads. This is really your best algae cleaner for glass, no saltwater pleco exists.

Sooooo agree! if you add up how much you pay for a really good magnet cleaner, and then snails and lawnmower blenny.... You're probably just as likely to spend the same if not more money. I like it! haha. My frikin tunze magnet was over $100.
