Advice On Glass Cleaner For 5/8”

[Luke.]

My glass is 5/8” and was wondering if these would work on the tank or if I need the bigger one ?

I personally hated my flipper and replaced it with a razor blade attached to and extendable arm.

that flipper will be too weak

I use the Tunze long, works for me, heavier material I use razor blade on extension arm.

I contemplated that but with a euro brace I feel it’ll get old fast , and having to work off a stool sucks to get the angles , I’ll get the 5/8 -1” I have the nano and liked it , just have to keep it clean

Keeping the Flipper clean is the key to it.

I use the flipper below and it works on thick glass. Unless you leave the algae on the glass for to long the real crusty spots don't come off. So i also use a razor blade for those spots. The big tank with euro brace isn't fun to use the blades but it works. Don't keep the cleaner in the tank as over time the blade can corrode a little and become dull. I use a file to smooth the edges from time to time on the blade. If the blade gets to old i just get the replacement blades

I ordered the same one and Used it the other nice works great , I have the nano and liked it , but this one works well and strong

I find if i use it and take it out and wash it in freshwater and dry it. It stays sharper for longer. If I get lazy and leave it in as i sometimes do. It gets duller faster.
