Biocube - best way to scrape curve?

[Red2143]

A regular scraper works great to remove algae on the flat portion of the glass but how do people remove algae from the curves where the scraper doesn't fit without scratching the glass?

This is the way.

I do the same, but took a mini blind adjuster rod, heated it up a bit to bend it some, cut it to just long enough to go to the bottom of the glass with a little above the top of the tank, glued a small piece onto it and do it that way. Works great and just rip the piece off when it is worn out and glue a new piece on.

Sure if you want to be fancy about it.

Massive hand and arm, run my back chamber mostly full of water and going to the bottom makes it very close to overflowing lol. Had to do something.

There are many ways I could respond to this but I’ll just say “nice job”.

When I had my biocube, I found the nano flipper worked well.
