Mag-Float Floating Magnet Aquarium Glass Cleaner

Keep your aquarium glass clean without getting your hands wet with the Mag-Float Floating Magnet Aquarium Glass Cleaner. Designed for saltwater and freshwater aquariums, Mag-Float uses a strong magnetic connection to clean algae and buildup from the inside of your aquarium while you control it from the outside.

The floating design makes it especially convenient for reef tanks. If the inside magnet becomes separated, it simply floats back to the surface instead of falling into your rockwork or getting buried in the sand.

Key Features:

  • Strong magnetic cleaning action
  • Floating inner magnet — easy to retrieve if separated
  • Cleans algae and buildup from aquarium glass
  • Use from outside the aquarium
  • Helps keep your hands dry
  • Suitable for freshwater and saltwater aquariums
  • Available in different sizes for different glass thicknesses

How to Use:
Place the inside cleaning magnet against the aquarium glass and position the outside magnet directly opposite it. Move the outside magnet slowly across the glass to remove algae and buildup. For best results, clean regularly before heavy algae accumulation develops.

Important: Always choose the Mag-Float size designed for your aquarium's glass thickness. Before cleaning, check for sand or other debris trapped between the magnets, as this can scratch the glass.

LIGHT

LOW: Place coral at the bottom of the tank. Depending on the type, coral may need to be placed off sand and therefore mounted on a ceramic disc of piece of rock.

MEDIUM: Place coral at mid-range of the tank. Best placed/glued on top of a rock scape at mid-range height. 

HIGH: Place coral from mid range to just below water level. SPS coral are shallow growing so they require and are able to tolerate intense light.

FLOW

LOW: Most soft coral do well with a small, gentle pulse. There are certain corals that can even be placed in areas of indirect flow, meaning places aside a rock structure or set into a entrance to a cave style space.

MEDIUM: Many LPS types of coral prefer medium pulse current. Most Euphyllia or corals that have more tissue structure connected to their skeleton, don’t like to be in a high flow area like the direct flow of the wave pump.

HIGH: Similar to high light, SPS enjoy being in some heavy current. Most LPS and SPS that branch encrust or plate prefer high flow that simulates the top water waves.

SKILL

ENTRY: While some may say beginner level, "Entry" is a good term to be used when starting out in the world of corals and marine life. Prior to adding livestock, you want to ensure that your reef has the proper parameters including zero levels of ammonia and nitrite. Seeing traces of nitrate in your waters is a good sign - just keep them at a lower level of 2ppm to 10ppm. Maintaining correct temperature and salinity are a huge factor to stable parameters. Starting to monitor your PH, alkalinity, calcium and magnesium is a great habit to get into to keep a successful reef.

While some soft coral don’t require too much light, having a proper reef light that puts out the proper pars is very important. You'll also want to have a good amount of flow and protected rock areas, as placing corals in their happy spot is ideal for success.
