Why care?

This glass pane cleaner makes it almost impossible to scratch aquarium panes (glass or acrylic).
The inner magnet is more than 3 mm (.2") away from the aquarium and thus prevents the jamming of the aquarium sand. The two plastic blades remove the algae considerably better from the glass panes than a flat cleaning surface – almost as good as a sharp metal blade. The life of a blade is from several months up to approx. one year. The low flow resistance during the cleaning with a simultaneous high magnetic coupling, makes a separation of the magnet nearly impossible.
The large blade should only be modified with the included stainless steel blade for aquarium glass panes with particularly tough algae, e.g. older deposits on the side walls or thick calcareous algae.
We expressly do NOT recommend using the Care Magnet on ACRYLIC! If you still want to try it at your own risk, 1.) use only the short blades, as they are gentler, 2.) do NOT use the Care Booster on the outside, as the natural felt is gentler and 3.) pay close attention to the purity of the felt, as adhering particles can cause scratches.
