    just got mine in today. Works great. No more reaching to the bottom of the tank and having to move rocks around to get the damn thing either.

    No issues with mine either. Works great. Every few months I need to go in with a razor and clear away the coraline though. I'm always nervous about capturing sand and scratching the glass. No scratches so far. The sand gets lodged between the bristles and doesn't come into contact with the glass. It's a much better design than my old cleaner that had a flat surface on the inside. I love the fact that it floats.

    Will the sand really scratch the glass? I thought diamonds were the only things you could scratch glass with. ;-)

    Do you guys take you Mag out after each cleaning or let it sit in the corner of your tank?

    I used to take it out.. but after seeing photos of tanks here with it sitting in the corner I decided to leave it in there now.. My dawrf ceriths make their way up there and stay suctioned to it for a while.
