Glass haze

[TK_KW]

So I've used flipper max and other scrappers. None work to remove it. They will remove the film of algea and what not. But not these hazy areas that seem a little more caked on.

You can only notice it when your below tank level looking up toward water surface, but glass has a haze in spots, clearly something.

What do you use? Straight up razor blade, magic eraser, what? It's annoying, any tricks?

You might try a piece of pvc pipe with a slot cut in end at an angle, to hold a razor blade.

I've been using scappers constantly from day 1. Not sure how this haze keeps getting worse

These work so good it’s like magic.

You’re welcome everyone

Were you ever able to figure out how to remove the haze?

I'll bet it's Starfire glass.
I've seen it before, even Hydrochloric acid did nothing.

It’s a harder type of algae . Not convinced if what I’m assuming being the same in mine or if it’s some type of Coraline algae

Nope. Its about the same. Miracles will replace front panel free of charge, if I decide to tear down tank.

Its a starphire defect, not algea
