ððððððð ðð ðððððððð: To clean up the 55gal aquarium to use as our plecostomus’ upgraded tankððððððð: A bucket, water, and the Algae Scrub Pad were the only items used to clean the entire 55gal tank in less than 30 minutes. The uncleaned aquarium sat in a covered carport style shed for 5 years gathering additional debris of tree pitch and pine needles. After a total fill-up of water to check for leaks, and emptying the water, the cleaning began. No glass cleaner has been used on the exterior of the glass (aquarium is 25 years old). What you see in the after picture is 100% of only the work of water and the Algae Scrub Pad. I expected razor blades would be necessary (bought them as well) and didn’t have to use them. I seriously thought this would be a four hour job.. The Algae Scrub Pad is thick, rinses easily with the spray nozzle on a hose (it blew the embedded pine needles off it) and doesn’t scratch the glass. It cut through EVERYTHING to clean this old tank to make it look new again.ðððððððð: None.ð ððððð: ***** (ð ð°ð¨ð®ð¥ð ð ð¢ð¯ð ðð¡ð¢ð¬ ðð ððððð!)

Been using these for years
I have been using these for over 20 years for my aquariums. They are large enough that I can cut them in thirds so I get maximum use from each one. They are very durable and do an excellent job.
BRIAN STAFFORD –
Ok
I cut it in half. Only complaint is that it comes apart very easy and leaves little blue threads everywhere

It took like 5 minutes to clean my whole tank
I thought this was the best scrubber I ever got, so got the small one for my small tank. The magnetic hold doesnât seem as strong so I will probably stick to the medium one. Cuts through all of the hard algae. Took 5 minutes to do a better job cleaning my tank than what seemed like hours using other methods.

It is a scrubber
It’s a scrubber. What can I say, It works fine but there is nothing special about it.

Enchanted –
HUGE!!! I guess i can cut it – at this size, too cumbersome to scrub the algae on my 75 gallon goldfish aquarium. Same good quality scrubbing pad as the smaller ones but i wouldn’t get this size again.

Needs extra force when cleaningIt scratches my tank because it can easily catch substrate
