    Has anyone tried this on Coralline?

    I know it came out a while ago, but dont remember what kind of reviews it had.

    I tried the medium I believe and i would say its a piece of junk thats not powerful enough to scrape even light coralline off 1/4 inch glass, maybe the bigger sizes are better, or the new ones revised, because I got mine when they first came out, but I wasnt impressed.
    your better off doing what one of my maintenance buddies did and taking a good magfloat and epoxying a scraper blade to it.

    get the magfloat with the easy blade attachment. It works awesome you just have to be careful around silicone. I use the big magfloat and all I did was super glue it on. Easy Blade Algae Scrapers - Black - English

    just don't leave it in the tank or the blade will rust! I dry my off after every use.
