Mag-float Scrape Lge+ (l120 X W65 X H30mm) — Magnetic cleaner with removable scraper blade for glass up to 20 mm thick
Once a display tank’s glass runs thicker than about 16 mm, the standard Scrape Lge starts to struggle for grip, and a bigger pair of magnets is the straightforward fix. Mag-float Scrape Lge+ (l120 X W65 X H30mm) (SKU: BM100497) is the Large Plus step up in Gulfstream Tropical Aquarium’s Mag-Float Scrape line, built for fresh or saltwater glass aquariums with panes up to 20 mm thick. Like the Scrape Lge, it pairs a scrubbing pad with a removable, replaceable stainless steel scraper blade in the one inner unit, so day-to-day algae film and stubborn marine coralline can both be cleared without swapping tools. The wet, inside half measures 120 x 65 x 30 mm, and powerful neodymium magnets create the coupling that carries it across the glass from the outer half.
If the two halves separate, the inner magnet floats to the surface for retrieval rather than sinking to the bottom, which matters most on the larger, deeper tanks this size is built for. A dedicated replacement pad and felt set (SKU BM200402) is sold for this size once the scrubbing surface wears thin, and a plastic spacer should be kept between the magnet halves whenever the cleaner is stored for any length of time. Because it carries a steel blade, the Scrape Lge+ is for glass aquariums only and is not suited to acrylic walls. The smaller Scrape Lge (SKU BM100494) covers glass up to 16 mm for tanks that do not need the extra grip of this size.
Usage & Application
When to Use
- Thick display glass: Panes up to 20 mm where the Scrape Lge’s grip is not quite enough.
- Marine coralline: Hardened growth on reef tank glass that a pad alone leaves in place.
- Large, deep aquariums: Where a dropped inner magnet floating to the surface saves a long reach.
- Glass only: Not for acrylic, since the steel blade can mark a softer wall.
How to Use
- Fit the blade securely: Seat the removable scraper in its holder before use so it sits flush to the glass.
- Scrub, then scrape: Clear film algae with the pad first and bring the blade in for coralline or marks.
- Replace the pad set: Swap in a new pad and felt once the scrubbing surface thins out.
- Store with the spacer: Keep the halves apart with the supplied spacer between cleaning sessions.
