I retired most of my scrapers and scrubbers. Too many of them barely worked, and the ones that did would sometimes scratch the glass as an unwanted bonus. Now I usually wear a media bag like a mitt or glove and use it to scrub the sides of the tank. Soft enough not to scratch anything, but still abrasive enough to get the stubborn stuff off with a little extra pressure. Just have to be OK with getting your hands wet.
One aquascaping/planted tank trick was to use a credit card (old) or similar type plastic card on softer algae on the tank walls. Sometime that stubborn green spot algae takes a little extra elbow grease or a flat razor blade. But I've only ever done that on my glass tanks. Interestingly enough, my large acrylic tank that houses Malawi cichlids only needs a gentle rub down on the interior with some soft filter floss batting.
Hey amazing tip!!! I just wanted to add that it is a good idea to wave a lighter over the razor blade a few times to burn off the machining oil on the razor blade!
I used it all, but since I tried scraper glove I never looked back. BY FAR the most efficient aquarium "tool" I ever bought. You can use it to clean glass, anubias plant leaves, heater, tubes, rocks... Pretty much everything.
@@SamuelTol999 Don't know how you call it im States, but it's literally a glove made for scraping algae. The one I'm using is called 'Cleaning glove for the aquarium' by JBL. It's extremely effective and frankly fun to use.
I use the API brand padded brush for acrylic on my glass aquarium. Just ripped off the pad from the stick and scrub by hand. It’s terrible on a stick but the added dexterity and strength in your hand makes it work great!
Great tip! 👍🏻 Any tips for not scratching your glass when your aquarium has sand & you are OCD and thus are constantly annoyed by sand made glass scratches? And repeat same for chipping the top edge of your tank while aquascaping with a heavy rock the other week!
Oh man! You don’t even understand how much this video comes at a good time. My bow front has been getting some stubborn algea on the front glass and it’s a pain to remove. I kept thinking to myself “I need a razor blade on a stick” 😂 then I watch this video. Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered one
I have a couple deep tanks so I made a couple of my own like this at different lengths. Pvc pipe with a narrow slot cut into the side at the desired angle. Easy, and free if you already have it laying around like me!
I use razor blades on almost all of my tanks, especially for removing water spots from the reptile terrariums. The downside to razor blades for me isn’t how sharp and potentially dangerous they can be, but that they come covered in a factory grease. I always soak a new blade in soapy water for an hour or so and then let it dry before use.
@@neonclouds9295 Boiling could cause some of the zinc galv to flake off, and a flake of zinc would definitely kill a fish that ingests it. Just make sure the blade gets a thorough rinse after the soap bath.
@@daniellesomerville3018 they should be thoroughly rinsing it off and then boiling it before I put it in his tank if they're doing that. Mans is lucky his fish are still alive
I brought an extension set with an extended handle & it contains one of these & it stripped off a few hard marks of diatoms on the back glass but otherwise i use a dishwasher scrubber, that you fill with washing up liquid 😂 they're brill also for just cleaning glass in general without heavy stains.
I'm relatively new to fish keeping, I'm staying away from "Razor Blades" because over time I suspect this is why so many tanks fail because people are over time damaging the caulking sealant. My solution (sure I dip in and get wet!) I keep a block of floral foam handy and slice off a piece no and again to clean the inside of the tank. a quick wipe down with absorbent towels and together with my UV filter I have crystal clear glass and water with no concerns of tank failure.
Thanks, what a great video. was going to go to store and get a magnetic one. Am ordering it right now. I got a lot of algae on the front glass of my aquarium. Thanks again!
It works great! Just don’t let it fall and cut you. I’m battling Mycobacterium marinum. It’s a bacteria from tanks. The bacteria entered through the cut. I have multiple ulcers and am on antibiotics. Still love my fish, however I am sure to wear waterproof gloves now when interacting with the water.
I only use razor blades on glass tanks and love the idea of a long handle. How well does the plastic work on acrylic? Is it a similar material to credit cards?
Great video. I have a film on the inner glass or hard algae and nothing will get it off. I do water changes weekly and all my levels are perfect. It’s a heavy planted tank. So I will gonna try using and buying that scraper. If it’s a film would you still us the scraper? Thank you
Great idea, I have a small tiny razor scraper and that's great for the smaller tanks. I've been looking for something for the 65 gallon. It's so tall that even on a step stool, I can't reach the bottom of the glass with the razor. So that glass only gets cleaned properly when my husband is home to do it. 💚 🐟💚
I do have magnetic 1 for the 15g and a bigger one for my 55g. I also have the last item and i also bought it in Amazon super cheap, but you have to put every piece together yourself
I use a sponge with an light abrasive pad on that people usually use for their dishes and it works just fine . Most algae eaters don’t touch algae after a few years really preferring algae wafers. Jason can you do a video on weather Aquarium water from filters that has been cleaned is safe to use to water outdoor plants . Does joanna use Aquarium water to water her garden?
I believe it was Joanne who put out a video a while back about using the plastic razor blade scrapers. I have a handheld one and it works perfectly, takes it all off, and I don't have to worry about scratching anything. They're cheap and effective.
I have one that holds a credit card and is really long. Works great. Got it from the guy with the huge display at the MN Aquarium Society's Spring Expo.
I have the exact same scraper ( or looks the same) here in UK and can vouch, it beats all the scrapers I ever tried. Replacement blades cost peanuts too. Just one warning, take care around the silicone as the razors are very sharp and could damage.
Jason have you ever tried a out of use credit card or gift card, I love mine and you have 8 different sides to us and yes they work for acrylic tanks to, try it you will never be disappointed.
For now, my tank is only 3 and a half months old so my algae is still soft and my magnet scrapper is still working appropriately. Used to have the magnet for my old tank before and I ended up using razor blades cause the algae was too tough. Glad there’s a handle for it. Holding the blade with my hand was no fun
Jason I've tried all this Scrapers you show here. Thinking maybe we could turn them into modern art? That last one you showed, the one you like, will be great! I've been using a razor blade in my fingers, those heavy three sided blades with the top folded over. They work great but I am starting to put some large aquariums together and reaching to the bottom will be a challenge, thank you!
I have used the razor blade on a stainless steel rod for a few years. But the cheapest, easiest way is an old credit card. My biggest tank is a 55G so easy to get at. It only takes a few short minutes to do.
I use a razor blade holder which is a long handle, not as long as the one you showed but my tank is only 75 gallon and I can reach to the bottom. It takes everything right off the glass.
i like the flipper platinum scraper. its pretty much the same idea but it uses old credit cards instead of razor blades. that way you dont have to worry about grease from the razor blades or a spooked fish getting cut by a razor.
I use one that is metal stainless steal. It has been through saltwater and freshwater many times and has came with many replacement blades. In Amazon if you search up :razor blade scraper aquarium: I use one of those. Mine is a different brand but I don’t think it matters
Hi Jason Can you use the plastic blade that comes with it in acrylic tanks? Or will it scratch the acrylic tanks? My Nano tanks are plastic like which may not even be considered acrylic. Thanks Jason
You can also buy those at any hardware store or Walmart. Usually less than $17. Razor blades can scratch glass if you don't use new ones. Razor blades are VERY SHARP!!! Be careful.
You can actually get extended handles with replaceable razor blades for $8+ on Amazon. I need to replace my long handle scouring pad so I might get one of the handles that has the pad attachment + razor blade attachment + whatever else it comes with (some have a corner scrubber and some have a fork and some have a bottle/tube brush).
Great Hint. I have tried most the others you mentioned. I like the plastic blades that Joanna mentioned once on the Small Scape as well. I also have found that the Aquarium Co-op algae sponges really do work!
Razors aren't allowed in my tanks. One little slip while prepping a tank for set up cost me a days worth of work, had to reseal the tank. Not worth the risk, in my opinion...
Aw man this video came out 2 days too late. I just ordered a sponge scaper from Amazon. It was only 7$ though, glad I didn't invest in any of the other products! Do you have any advice for scapers that work well on a Bow Front tank? Thanks for the great video yet again.
Scraper will work on a bow fronted tank but you have to be working horizontally rather than vertically. If you try using it in the usual up-and-down mode it won't work, you'll only be making contact on the sides of the scraper.
I have a 120 gallon tank that’s been running for 2 years. I never got green algae but still get loads of brown algae. Appreciate any advice or suggestions
Thanks for the tip, really appreciate it. Don’t think its the lighting because mine is on for only 3-4 hours a day. But nutrients could be the culprit. Although I have medium stock with a FX6 and Oase 600 running.
Please pls pls, I need help with a BBA problem! This stuff does not go away, no matter how much I reduce the lighting, and it's so hard to manually remove! I'm at my wits end here
It’s in some of our tanks. I generally control it with light, keeping nitrates at less than 20ppm and using liquid ferts if I can avoid it. Also, hornwort will compete with it.
I agree the blades work the best. I have one that is similar with a bit longer handle. But you do have to be careful. Last year I was moving and reached into a box without thinking and and ended up with stitches.
Seriously forget all these scrapers and get Melamine foam sponges. I use them once a week and my tanks are spotless. Removes algae and anything else that's stuck on the glass and it's crystal clear after. Also another bonus there's absolutely no risk of scratching your glass. Only downside is you do have to get you hand and arm wet 😄
@@PrimeTimeAquatics yes they won't tackle the "baked" on stuff but I try not to let it get like that. It's so much easier cleaning regularly with the sponges 🙂

Nice idea, it looks pretty sturdy and the 12” extender is perfect for keeping fingers away from the blade if your accident prone like myself 😳
I'm thankful to know what works best. It will keep me from spending money on things that don't work. Gina Hetlage
I have used the razor blade on a stainless steel rod for a few years. But the cheapest, easiest way is an old credit card. My biggest tank is a 55G so easy to get at. It only takes a few short minutes to do.

The soft backing fell apart so fast for us!
@@PrimeTimeAquatics that's what happened with mine, and I had spent good money on the Mag Float. Such a disappointment!
@@PrimeTimeAquatics for what they cost, you'd expect them to be better made.
Is it OK to use a clean green and yellow dish scrubbie sponge to clean your glass with or is it toxic ? 🤔
As long as there aren’t any detergents added to the brand you are using it should be just fine.
I have throw all my scrapers away. My go to now is the Mr Clean Magic eraser, you do have to get your arm wet but it takes anything off the glass.
Can't beat a Bristlenose catfish!
What’s your opinion on acrylic tanks? Talking to a custom builder rn trying to get a 300 gal
Very nice - lighter, clearer and seams last longer - downside is the cost and they scratch easier.
It’s also handy from scraping off your old registration to put your new one on your car.😉
Hopefully my fish doing ok traveling in the east coast for 10 days brother racing at lemons 🍋 race in new jersey this weekend so much fun
Have fun!
Amazing video!! Your channel seems really cool!! Just subbed too!!

You can also buy those at any hardware store or Walmart. Usually less than $17. Razor blades can scratch glass if you don't use new ones. Razor blades are VERY SHARP!!! Be careful.
I use no name brand Magic Erasers. I bought around 100 for $20 on Amazon. Great on all algae. They just start to fall apart after a little use.
Having a 100 gal acrylic tank I use a micro fiber cloth, the best...
Ha!! I've discovered 4inch professional stainless window razor works with a quickness..handle even has spot for an extension..don't use for acrylic
I just get the blue scrubbing pad without the handle. Works pretty good for me! Especially with a biofilm buildup.
You can actually get extended handles with replaceable razor blades for $8+ on Amazon. I need to replace my long handle scouring pad so I might get one of the handles that has the pad attachment + razor blade attachment + whatever else it comes with (some have a corner scrubber and some have a fork and some have a bottle/tube brush).
Best thing to do is prevent it from getting that bad in the first place. I use a pot scrubber once a week and never had a problem with it getting bad
I use a mag float I only have one tank running atm and my other tank is a 5 gallon.
Do you recommend the Virgo pea pebbles gravel for Betta fish just purchased from home Depot
I haven’t used it. As long as it isn’t coated with anything and you wash it well it’s usually ok.
Do you use the plastic blades or the carbon steel blades?
I use steel

Kept watching, hoping you'd mention the actual best long-term solution against algae - snails & a timer for your light.
Not to worry - we’ve covered those too. 😀

Is there a very big risk of scratching a round corner - bow front - is glass but not flat so ...
It can happen. Bowfronts are definitely more of a pain to clean.
I just use a bristle brush with a long handle so I don't have to get my hands wet.
Haha,being a mechanic by trade that's what I use.😁
Nice 😀
Seems like a good way to scratch the glass.
Can't say I have ever scratched the glass with a razor blade, but I have with the store bought algae scrapers when they get bent.
I fitted the razor blade to my gravel cleaner. Scrape and suck at the same time. Saves your filter bag for sure. 🚩🕴
I agree the blades work the best. I have one that is similar with a bit longer handle. But you do have to be careful. Last year I was moving and reached into a box without thinking and and ended up with stitches.
I use it all the time ,
I left those disolving food things supposed to be good for 10 days
Scrappers and their empty promises!! I now just grab my biggest fish and use him to scrub the glass.
Well, i use toothbrush trapped on a stick to clean my tanks.
When i try i am left with heartattack numbers of scratches
For curved glass this doesn't work I gues, but it looked good👍.
Ya not as good for a bowfront
Bristlenose catfish is the best; 1 in each tank.
