Missing Razor Blade
 
Well, I was recently cleaning my 65G display and i dropped my 3 inch razor blade into the rockwork. I searched for about 10 mins and then gave up because I couldn't find it. Should I be making the effort to find it and remove it or will i be good just leaving it in there?

Thanks for that Greg, that Blue tipped Acro and the orange/green acro are doing great by the way!

Can you try a dragging a mag float around in there? It will rust up pretty quickly.

You mean it will pick rust up? I'm confused

Sorry, I mean the blade will rust up real quick, I would try using a magnet to find the blade and pull it out.

Okay will do, I'm just afraid its in the rock work somewhere so it might be a little harder than that :\

I've dropped several myself, I know how invisible they get. :neutral: Good luck..

I don't know how bad it is to leave it, my instinct tells me "metal == bad", but who knows.

Im hoping
 
Well I'm hoping that Fe isn't considered a "Heavy Metal" but after a little reading I believe if anything It will result in an algae bloom instead of a fish kill off.

If it is a stainless steel blade it wont be magnetic !!
