Description

Seachem Algae Scraper 46cm (18 Inch) — Extended Multi-Blade Cleaning Tool for Deep Aquariums

The Seachem Algae Scraper 46cm “18 Inch” (SKU: 724942-3208) is an ergonomic maintenance tool built for cleaning deep display aquariums without submerging hands in water. Constructed from lightweight, rigid fibreglass-reinforced rod material, this scraper provides maximum leverage to scrape away tough algae without bending or breaking under pressure.

Equipped with a dual-position head system, it accommodates both metal blades for glass tanks and non-scratch pads for acrylic setups. The weighted head design helps maintain downward leverage, while the floating handle prevents the tool from sinking to the bottom if dropped into the tank.
