Review on 🔋 1-Count Container of Glass Aquarium API Algae Scraper by Jenny Washington

API Algae Remover isn't worth a penny. This scraper easily scratches aquarium glass; Acrylic, low iron glass and regular glass. The concept of this scraper is just what I need to remove algae and keep the glass in pristine condition. However, the long-term consequences and glass damage are not worth getting rid of algae temporarily. The pad is abrasive and is made of inferior material. This scraper claims to be very long and sturdy; However, this is not the case. The handle is about 17 inches long and even in my 55 gallon tank my hand gets wet which completely belies their advertising that you don't get your hands wet while using this product. I highly recommend using a magic eraser, most of which are magnetic. This product also contains small traces of chemicals unsafe for fish such as algaecides and antimicrobials. While it won't damage your glass, it's not good for fish and beneficial microfauna. Also take into account that the pad is not antibacterial or antifungal which creates a breeding ground for bacteria, disease and disease for your fish. When using a scraper, there is a high chance of penetrating sand, rocks, crushed coral, and gravel. fall into the trap and become a prisoner in the pad. No matter how well you clean the pad or even try to separate these pieces from the pad, they will not come out because they will stick to the pad.
