Does what it should.

later If you have an acrylic tank it is important to clean it with a product designed for acrylic and not glass or you will scratch the tank. I like this particular cleaning pad because it's small and easy to reach into corners (which doesn't work well with a cleaner by the handle). I am very satisfied with this product.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • I'll add

Hand-held Algae Pad Acrylic

This product has never let me down, never scratches. When wiping the bottom of the tank, be careful not to get any material (dirt or gravel) between the pad and the acrylic tank. Before use, moisten the pad for a few minutes. I use it on the inside of the tank and also wipe the outside to remove water stains and fingerprints. The outside of the HAND HELD ALGAE PAD ACRYLIC is lined with soft fabric for a great look.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged

acrylic scratches!

A 20 gallon aquarium is $160. I was very concerned about scratches as my research showed that acrylic tanks are soft. I am a meticulous person and have worked very carefully. I have thoroughly washed and cleaned this pillow. I am VERY careful not to get stuck in the gravel or substrate when paddling. I didn't realize it even scratched until during a water change the water dripped enough to dry out the tank walls. Terrible scratches and haze everywhere. Some scratches are fairly deep, but mostly

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel

  • Exterior

Nice pad for the price

I bought this pad for my acrylic saltwater aquarium. This is an easy to use pad that removes algae from acrylic with ease. For stubborn stains, you may need to rub a little harder. A few things to note, while the pad hasn't scratched my acrylic, you need to be careful when cleaning near the base (sand/gravel/crushed coral) as shavings will get stuck in the pad and cause the acrylic can be scratched. Simple fix, I run my fingers between the acrylic and the backing and create a channel, then I…

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Great price
