"This really works amazingly well, normally I use a manic eraser to get off hard to get algae but you really need to put in elbow grease,however with the flipper it really does all the work for you I am extremely impressed and satisfied and thrilled I don't have to get my hands wet."
"Definitely cut my glass cleaning by 2/3's Though my old cleaner was a lil old and i would have to move slower because it wouldn't float so if it fell you have to reach and get it."
"I have a 75 gallon glass saltwater aquarium."
"Works great but beware of 2 issues with plexi tanks; Make sure you do not have dirt on the front of your tank as the outside magnet can scratch."
"After a few weeks, it's time for an update.. Pros-. Low profile to get in tight spaces, will get between rocks and the glass where others won't. Not sure if it gets dull, but after only a couple of good sessions it doesn't cut through the stuff as well as it did when brand new.It's especially noticeable on the hard green film-like algae I get. After having it for a few weeks, it seems like the routine I've settled into is starting out with a Mag Float (without a pad), getting what I can with the Mag Float, then switching to the Flipper and using the blade to work on the stubborn areas ans along the sand line. I don't regret the purchase, I just wish the blades were made of a harder steel, and the design was more ergonomic."
"It's the same device and it works just as well as when I raved about it, it's just that a light bulb went on in my head while using a single-edge razor blade paint scraper on a stick for another purpose. You guessed it, a cheap scraper with a handle that uses cheap single-edged razor blades does a much better job, does it much faster and does it with a lot less effort."
"This magnet cleans the brown algae like all the other magnets....But doesn't float it becomes dislodged from it's magnet mate."
The cleaning brush stays free of sand or gravel, preventing scratching and the strong attracting magnets easily remove algae. Gulfstream tropical mag floating glass aquarium magnet small.

"It gets the job done but on my thick 1/2 inch thick glass tank if I get to aggressive moving it back and forth the scrapper on the inside breaks free and floats off."
"Makes scraping your tank glass so easy, expecially when used with the AGU00401 scraper blades."
"Extremely strong magnet and works great in my 150 gal tank with the attachments."
"Also I don't have to look for a place to store it as I am leaving it in a bottom back corner of my 50 gallon tank and it looks pretty."
"Does what it's supposed to and very well....I really like the fact if it comes apart it floats."
"So I have smaller versions of these on my smaller tanks."
"There are way better algae magnets than this one."

Photos six and seven show the brass attachment and then the Python green attachment attached to the stationary tub hose. If you trying to attach the Python to the hose from which you removed a center spray handle, you are going to need to buy another brass adaptor to connect the green Python attachment to the hose. If you're not going to attach the Python to a sprayer hose-type connection either at your kitchen sink or stationary tub, just make sure you have a faucet that has an aerator that can be unscrewed from the faucet. I have attached photos of the stationary tub that we were trying to attach the Python brass adapter to with no success. The diameter of the brass Python attachment is too big to screw into the attachment on the stationary tub hose."
"I had a 10 gallon tank and was using the siphon and bucket for water changes. I upgraded to a 36 gallon tank and when I tried to fill it up with the bucket it was a lot of effort and mess on the floor. So i went back to siphon and bucket for the water change as I could not risk the fish to die. As I noted earlier about my lack of handy man skills, I was waiting for the call back from Phython to guide me. In the mean time i had ordered the snap connector thinking it would help me with fixing it to the faucet. There they helped me and said that the brass adapter that i have from Phyton would work with my faucet and I did not need anything extra. Back home there was success in fixing the adapter to the faucet and i was able to get water out of the tank. This time I removed the washers from the brass adapter and started with less pressure from the faucet."

"This little net is just when I needed for my 2.5 gallon red cherry shrimp tank."
"i usually stand the net up on the handle (rubber area where you hold it works well for this) leaning it against something that can't be damaged by water so that it can dry after use."
"💜This is a Fine mesh net that is deeper than a regular fish net and it works perfect for catching Mr. Wiggles🐟, our betta who lives in a 2.5 gal."
"The threading is so fine, I can't see it."
"Low stress and quick way to transfer new fish to your tank."
"Good item, but it still takes a bit to get my fish inside, as the bulky sides of the net can get caught against the sides of my tank."
"its alright."
