What's best way to keep glass clean

[Mattl22]

My tank gets a lot of coraline algae which is tuff to get off just wondering if u guys use something other then a mag float or scrapper ???

Mag Float barely makes a dent if any to coraline algae; it's good ol' elbow grease and a scraper.

Got a pic of how this setup looks? Would be interested in DIY.

Basically cut a slanted slit onto the pipe, insert the blade, and fasten with a rubber band. Make sure to rinse the blade after use though, salt water makes the blade rust pretty fast. How big is your tank, if it is not too deep, you can just use the razor blade.

Can you just glue a regular blade and make the same thing?
