Has anyone ever seen these in action?

What does everyone think?

Scam/junk/worthless crap, the fact that they are still in buisness only proves one thing, there is a sucker born every minute.

Yep.

I can't find the link but... Some one opened one of these. All it is is a piece of PVC pipe with some magnets taped around it.

Hey Todd you think they make Enough off these things to pay the bills? I never see them in the LFS anymore?

I just don't get how they can afford to pay someone to tape the magnets to the pipe.

It really is surprising how often this comes up. At least some people have the good sense to come here and ask before they buy one. I feel bad for the people who dont and are getting scammed.

I cannot believe someone can actually sell some piece of crap such as this and actually sleep at night. My algae cleaner magnets must be working wonders on my tank.

That's why tunzes and vortechs are so good for your tank, it's the strong magnets ...

This is funny and sad at the same time...

Thanks everyone! Things like this are why I like RC. There is always someone who can prove or, in cases like this one, disprove something. Good advice doesn't always save money, but it most often saves the lives of our reef tank inhabitants. I guess I will stick with my AquaC EV 180 running on a Mag 9. Damn! I really wanted to put a small nuclear reactor in my sump...ha ha.

Yeah, the Eco Aqualizer is a scam. I did read that this additive is really good though and am going to give it a try. What do you think?
