  • Great
Style: Nano - up to 1/4Inch
Once I figured out how to get it to flip in tank (read the directions) cleaning the glass was quick and easy.

  • Pretty simple and easy to use.
Style: Standard -1/4Inch - 1/2Inch
It will have to be replaced after 3 months if heavily used, it begins to rust where the scraper is. But it works great and makes cleaning my saltwater tank a lot easier. I just wish it would float if you drop it in the tank or it separates from the other half. But it is a very useful tool.

  • The Flipper is a great scraper.
Style: Standard -1/4Inch - 1/2Inch
When looking at this and deciding to buy it, the price seemed rather expensive for what it is... basically a few magnets encased in plastic. And upon receiving it and opening the box, just looking at it -- I was less than impressed. But whoa!! That all changed the first time I used it! I have a 55 gallon planted goldfish tank that gets allot of light. And so stubborn algae on the glass has always been an big issue (Side note: I have been an aquariumist for over 37 years..... so I have seen and used allot of glass cleaners, including many magnet style ones.) Anyway, I opened the package and took it out and put it in the tank to use it Still thinking.... boy -- 39.00 seems like allot for this gizmo. ONE SWIPE. Yes folks... all it took just one swipe up and down the glass and I was hooked. One swipe up and down, using the "blade" side, took of almost ALL of the stubborn embedded algae that previously 10 min. of scrubbing had failed to remove. This scraper has an ingenious design- It has two little raised "bumps" on the blade side that make it press "nose down"on the glass at a VERY slight angle-- Thus causing the blade "nose" of the scraper press on the glass with a bit more force than the opposite end of the scraper. It is hard to describe this unusual little feature, but you will see it when you examine the unit. And I feel this adds greatly to its effectiveness because it works like a charm! Plus, the magnets held fast on the 55 gallon tank I was using it on. They are definitely NOT weak magnets. It has very strong magnets. Some other features are: It is two sided (Hence the name "Flipper") Flip it over from the blade side, and it also has the conventional "scrub pad" side that is perfect for removing slime algae and film. It also comes with an interchangeable plastic scraper blade to use instead of the metal blade. You would use this plastic scraper blade plexi and acrylic tanks. I was very pleased and would recommend this scraper. Yes, it is kind of expensive for basically some magnets encased in a plastic shell.... But you will easily get your moneys worth out of it just based on all the time you will save scraping your glass. It works very well! This is a good product. Cheers, Todd ... show more

  • Best magnet I've used- UPDATE
Style: Standard -1/4Inch - 1/2Inch
Best magnet I've used, and I've had about all of them. Just wish the outside portion was larger, my hand starts to cramp after a few minutes. After a few weeks, it's time for an update.. Pros- Low profile to get in tight spaces, will get between rocks and the glass where others won't. Does an excellent job busting through built up coralline. Can get down to/in the sand bed without scratching the glass (when using the blade side). Cons- Blade loses its "oomph" quickly, at least for me. Not sure if it gets dull, but after only a couple of good sessions it doesn't cut through the stuff as well as it did when brand new.It's especially noticeable on the hard green film-like algae I get. I have to make two passes with the magnet at 90 degrees to get it all off. (I didn't have to do that when it was new.) I was able to lightly lap the edge on a very fine stone which seemed to help. But be prepared to buy a spare blade. (Best to go ahead and order a replacement when you order the cleaner.) The other side of the cleaner is pretty much useless (at least for me). But, I get the hard green algae. Make sure your outside glass is clean before you start to use the cleaner. And I mean pristine. The felt on the outside-of-the-tank magnet does not hold up very well. Worse than any other magnet cleaner I've owned (and I've owned just about all of them). If there's any salt residue on the outside glass, it'll mess up the felt in a hurry. The outside magnet holder could be (and should be) larger. For me, it gets uncomfortable to use after a few minutes. But, I am older, have large hands, and I probably have a touch of carpal tunnel. After having it for a few weeks, it seems like the routine I've settled into is starting out with a Mag Float (without a pad), getting what I can with the Mag Float, then switching to the Flipper and using the blade to work on the stubborn areas ans along the sand line. I don't regret the purchase, I just wish the blades were made of a harder steel, and the design was more ergonomic. ... show more
