Magnetic Algae scraper for thick glass

[subman]

algae free magnets are the ONLY ones I would ever buy. Simply the best and have an option for a razor blade attachment. It does coraline no prob.

Just so you know. 3/4 inch is thicker than 5/8. So the one you mentioned will be ok.

mag flip is garbage Imo

I was not vouching for the mag flip just letting him know that any cleaner rasted for 3/4 is fine for 5/8.

lol I didn't see your post was typing and the phone rang took me that long to write 5 words.

mmmmkay I knew I wasn't completely crazy. The mag float I have is only good on aquariums up to 3/8 thick, not 3/4, and the version that replaces it, the flipper (http://flippercleaner.com/) is only good up to 3/8 as well.

I see that the algae free does have scrapers that work on tanks 5/8" to 3/4" thick, but their handles don't work with the look of my tank. In a worst case scenario I could paint the handle of the algae free unit white, but is there any other brand that comes razor-capable that can handle thicker glass?

that new flipper looks not bad actually but the most important thing in these magnetic scrapers is the magnets! most are just to weak to do anything

May flips are complete garbage...even the new one from what I understand. Mag Floats are not so bad. You could look at this one: www.jlaquatics.com/product/cl-mf500/Mag-Float+500+(Glass)+Cleaning+Magnet.html
