Default Any good algae scrapers

Hey guys, lately the tank has been getting more coraline build up and I was just wondering what is the best algae scrapper with easily acquired blades ie from Home Depot. Had the mag flip for a while but ran out of the plastic blades lol. Anyways looking for a thin magnetic scrubber with blade attachment that floats. Let me know what options there are.

Thanks

Victor

I'm not sure if this meets your criteria; however I've found that the best scrapers to be made by: "Algae Free Llc." they also have a plastic scraper attachment as an option. The magnets are exceptionally strong and the "aquarium"/wet side floats.

By far the best algae scraper I've found is this little beauty:

You have to glue it to a mag float or something similar, but WOW, does it work awesome!
