Holly cow but this thing is awesome. It's hard to believe but I'm calling this one a game changer. I've owned almost all the scrapers. the flippy one, the floatey one, the woody one, and some other obscure manufactures, razors on a stick, pads on a stick and everything under the sun. Stubborn green algae it takes in one swipe, encrusted coralline may take 2-3 but it's no challenge. The replacement blades aren't an arm and a leg. The scraper almost disappears in the corner of the tank when not in use and there's nowhere for snails to grow that can scratch your glass or acrylic. It's impossible to pick up sand with it which can be a problem even with a glass tank.
There is about a 1/4" triangle in the corners of the tank that it won't get but that's once a month 5 min with a razor.
I loaned mine to a buddy so he could try before he buys... He took a little longer to return it than I had hopped so I started cleaning with one of the afore mentioned scrapers in my drawer and just said to heck with it after :30 seconds, the glass can stay green until I get my Tunze back.
I got it back last night and cleaned the tank this morning. Don't get me wrong, it's still scrapping but it's vastly more effective than anything I have used before.
