Nimble Nano-magnet for 12g cube?

Paladin, that's a great idea on the fish net!

Well, in the end, i'll probably go with the super-nimble. Unless a floating version comes out before I order

I got the Nimble yesterday. I love it! For some reason, I thought it was the same size as the MagFloat, only thinner. I was wrong. It's tiny - about the size of an eraser. But that's great. It gets into all those tight spots I couldn't scrape before. It took off some pretty tough stuff, too.

It goes around the corners of the nanocube easily and I haven't lost it yet. As for cleaning the corners, you have to kinda go up and down on each side. It's a little tricky, but it can clean the rounded corners.

Definitely recommended.

Where can I find one? I've got the mag float but it has issues getting some places where the rock is too close to the sides for it to get by.

Schweeet... thanks

schiavonir, did you get the nimble or the supernimble? Do you think the other has a larger footprint?

Thanks!

I got the Nimble. I'm not sure about the footprint. I looked on the website and can't find any pictures specifically labelled as SuperNimble. Try emailing Jerome at CJerome@nimblenano.com

I believe the footprint is the same. The difference is that the super has thicker magnets, thus it has a stronger hold.

Man, I ordered from Jerome literally 2 days ago and I got the magnet today! I ordered the Super Nimble after an e-mail recommendation from Jerome to go with the Super for the 12g nanocube. This magnet is very strong, does fine around corners, and you can clean the corners with a little work (definitely better than the stock crap magnet!)

So, another happy customer. One note, you may want to go with black or with the "smoke" color to avoid seeing the magnets inside of the cleaner... really, it doesn't bother me, but thought i'd mention it in case someone hadn't thought about it (like me, haha.)

I got mine on Sat. after ordering it on Thurs. Got the super nimble for my 24g nano. I have to say, this magnet is awesome! Cleans everything very easily, not a problem in terms of it being smaller than my MagFloat and does the curved front much better than the MagFloat. The small footprint is also easier to stomach in the tank and I actually like the clear because it doesn't stand out so much like the big white blob of the MagFloat. I highly recommend this magnet!

I ordered mine one Friday so hopefully i'll get it today! Cant wait to try it out. Also, I just got a 55 acrylic... has anyone used this on an acrylic tank?
