The algae that accumulates in my tank seems to be very thick and it can take me 2 hours to clean off all the glass with the pad I bought from the LFS. In the past the magnet cleaners I had come across never really worked and were always falling into the tank. Have these gotten any better and more efficient? Also, the scrapers they sell look awful flimsy and I am usually put a good amount of force on the acrylic with the pad making me wonder if these would snap or even do much at all. Anyone have any comments/suggestions. I just dont have time everyday to run the algae pad across all the acrylic. thanks

I have the magfloats with the attatchable scraper and it works great takes off coralline algae in one scrape. This and the extension scraper is all I use for my tanks. Both the magfloat and easy blade attatchment can be found here, http://www.marinedepot.com/aquarium_...ers.asp?CartId=

Mag floats do not give you the issue some magnetic cleaners do, they havegood magnets and if they do seperate, the cleaner side floats to the top, they also make cleaners for glass and acrylic.
