The OFFICIAL Toothbrush Thread

So after doing some tank maintenance this simple little tool made my tasks much easier.

I just wanted to start a simple thread highlighting uses of the common Toothbrush inside the reef aquarium.





** I will update the main thread as you post your uses of the toothbrush.


1. Clean Powerhead's
2. Clean Skimmer
3. Clean frag plugs
4. Clean/Prep Rock
5. Salt creep removal
6. Clean Overflow
7. Clean Reactor Lines
8. Clean Inside of Return

I use it for cleaning all equipment including any of their parts, rocks, plugs. In other words anything that it can clean it gets used on.
