In 2014, the Care Magnet concept was a fundamental innovation in the field of aquarium glass cleaning. Care Magnet consists of an ergonomic handle and low-wear plastic blades.
This cleaning magnet prevents scratches on aquarium glass. The internal magnet is more than 3 mm away from the glass, preventing sand grains from getting trapped between the glass and the magnet. The two special plastic blades remove and expel algae much more effectively than a flat cleaning surface, almost as effectively as a metal blade. The lifespan of the plastic blades ranges from several months to about a full year. The low hydraulic resistance during cleaning and a consistent pressure make it almost impossible for the magnet to detach.
For glass aquariums with old algae encrustations or numerous particularly difficult-to-remove calcareous algae, we recommend replacing the large plastic blade with the special stainless steel blade included with the set.
The patented principle of using two blades of different lengths creates two different pressure points. The short blade is designed to remove firmly encrusted algae, while the wide blade is more suitable for a large cleaning surface.
- Its slim construction prevents contact with plants or corals.
- Care Magnet can also be used on rounded or curved glass.
- Plastic blades with rounded corners allow for easy transition from one glass pane to another without damaging silicone joints.
- Does not disperse algae into green dust in the aquarium, algae are compacted and rolled up to serve as food for fish.
- Can also be used as a simple handheld scraper.
