Flipper Standard Float 2 In 1 Magnetic Aquarium Algae Cleaner

Product details

FLIPPER STANDARD FLOAT 2 IN 1 MAGNETIC AQUARIUM ALGAE CLEANER is a dual-sided magnetic algae scraper designed for routine tank maintenance on glass and acrylic aquariums. Its practical use is straightforward: you move the outer scrubber across the inside surface to remove algae and stubborn buildup, while the internal matching side follows through the tank wall. The “float” design helps keep the magnets properly oriented for easier retrieval and consistent cleaning performance, making it well-suited for regular glass/acrylic cleanings and algae management.

Features:

• Built with strong rare earth magnets for effective cleaning of algae buildup.
• Dual-scrubber/scraper design for covering more area efficiently during daily maintenance.
• Blade side uses only 3 contact points, helping create a small separation between blade and tank surface to reduce the chance of trapping sand and lowering scratch risk.
• Designed with ultra-low profile for easier access to tight areas and near the bottom.
• Orienting buoyancy helps keep the magnetic halves facing the glass for more reliable alignment and retrieval.
• Nearly neutral buoyancy helps prevent the internal magnet from “sinking” if magnets disengage.
• Includes two replaceable blades sized for different tank materials: stainless steel for glass and ABS plastic for acrylic.

Specifications:

• Suitable tank thickness: Up to 1/2" (12mm)
• Blade gap/contact design: 3 contact points creating a 3mm gap between cleaner and the glass (for reduced sand-trap risk)
• Magnet design: Rare earth magnets with orienting buoyancy
• Blade types included: Stainless steel blade (glass) and ABS plastic blade (acrylic)
• Suggested blade replacement interval: Every 3–6 months to maintain optimal scraping
