How do you remove coraline algae from your front glass?

[tim2]

I cant keep it off with an ordinary mag-float. Is there an easier way than using a razorblade and having to run your arm in? Thanks Tim

I usually get so much coraline on my front glass, and it can be very hard to get off with a regular mag float. Razor blades are also good, but I find this method the best.

Get a very hard credit card (the harder the better). Then, scrape it off walls. I find that very easy to do, and usually doesn't take me more than 2 minutes at a time.

This is just one out of hundreds of posible ways of removing coraline, just keep that in mind.

Tha magfloat are not that strong. Check out these magnets there work well and there not they are not pricey. Just make sure you get the right size because there are very strong and get to powerful of a magnet and you won't be able to move it easliy.

if you dont want your arm in the tank, take an ordinary scraper and put a razor balde it. how you attach it i dont know never did it, but this sounds like the easiest way. look at some of the stuff you can get at a hardware store to scrape stuff off, jmo

To stick the blade on, I use Aquastik (2 part adhesive). It hardens and holds, but when its time to change blades, I can still easily chip it off in one shot and start over.
