Right there is the reason I prefer glass. I just razor blade it.

I just bought an Algae free magnet clenaer and it is top notch. I got the Piranha for mine but your acrylic is thicker

i also had a mag float, they are weak

this bad boy right here is the one for your size

like it says dont put them together you will never get them apart. These are some very strong magnets

I also use an algae free for normal duty work, but just bought one of these for the tougher coralline:

You will still need to scrape it off, but it is soooo much easier when it is dead already and saves tons of time.

Don't know if these work on acrylic, but has any one tried one of these?

I've got a nimble for my nano tank at the office, and they work for small, thin paned tanks. They are tiny with relatively weak magnets and are really only designed for nano tanks. I have the super, which is only about 1.5" long, so not designed for large tanks, and I doubt that it would work at all on a 3/4" pane, glass or acrylic.
