biorb magnetic algae cleaner
January 16th, 2009
Easy to use and less damaging – Hi tech polymer blades clean without scratching and prevents grit getting stuck in cleaning surfaces, and if the magnetic coupling is released it floats!
Simply dust the outer surface with a soft cloth to remove any grit and then move the outer section of the cleaner, the internal section will follow cleaning algae off the inside of the aquarium – no more wet hands!
This device is great at cleaning but leaves scratches on the outside. I have written to the company as three people I know experience the same problem. I have ended up putting a tissue between the outside unit of the magnet and the plastic.
before using it you do need to make sure you wipe the outside and inside of your tank with a soft cloth to make sure there aren’t any dust/rock particles on the tank or on the magnet itself. If there are they will scratch your tank as you use it
