Flipper Magnet=Awesome

[Travis1787]

Just thought id share ... I picked one up at FAOIS for $39.99, it felt a little wrong spending 39.99 for a cleaning magnet and that's no fault to faois, the magnets prices are set by the manufacturers.

But let me tell you this thing is worth EVERY PENNY... I can't believe how well it works and how great the blade scraps even coralline algae with ease. It can get in areas you normally can't with the usual hand held scrappers and its so much quicker. It makes keeping your glass clean so much easier and I highly recommend them to anyone thinking about getting one. Go pick one up at FAOIS

Probably one of the best tools in my shed. In fact, I feel like I'm taking algae out to the wood shed. Wham! Bam! Pow! Lol

It is great for sure..

100% agree worth every penny

I'm going to have to pick one of these up. What size are you guys using? Does the Medium still get into the tight spaces?

 

[MJNTWise]

Well I will be heading down for the blood drive, So I might as well get one too.....

When is the blood drive?

I have had 1 for about a year. I love it for my glass tank. Not so much on the acrylic tank. Worth every penny on glass tanks.

I love my flipper. Needed one asap and got it off amazon prime since faois was out of stock at the time. I got the medium one for my 210. Might go this weekend and get the smaller one for my planted tank.

 

[kybreos]

What size did you get for the 210? If you don't mind what was the retail price?

 

[bigzman]

Medium for 39.99 with amazon prime free 2 day shipping. If you need it locally tampa area faois has them.

 

[kybreos]

I was thinking a bigger one, I need something with some pull.

 

[bigzman]

They will soon have a version for 3/4 glass. If you have a 1/2 glass it works well

Thanks

love my flipper too, got it about 2 weeks ago. Keep an eye on it though, my blade started to rust so I put the plastic blade for acrylic on.

Just take it out of the tank each time u r done using it. That's what I do. It will last a lot longer that way also
