Mag-flip - a piece of junk

[nlreefguy]

Oh, there's pets unlimited too, but they're really not worth mentioning. Just to give you some idea of the situation, the only type of skimmer I can buy here in St. John's are Red Sea products

Makes a fella want to move back home and get a saltwater store up and running I'm sure the misses would love that lol been five years since I was home and when I was there wasn't anything for saltwater worth the trip

Agreed, got one of these and even on 6mm glass...not worth a dime for scraping ability.

They should be paying us to take them off their hands!

I also made the mistake of buying a mag flip, after realizing both sides sucked and not wanting to have wasted the money...I rubber band a razor blade to the scraper side and it now works great for scraping algae/coralline and I don't have to stick my hand in the tank .

Oh yeah? I'd like to see a picture of what you've got done there - we'll salvage this thing yet!

please do... I'll even help you get started. Hell, I'd partner up with you if I thought we could get in some good equipment and reliable supply of good corals. St. John's is dying for a high end reef shop.
