Mag-Float Floating Magnet Aquarium Cleaner

Mag-Float Floating Magnet Aquarium Cleaner

Algae-Free Glass Tanks Without Getting Your Hands Wet

The Mag-Float Floating Magnet Aquarium Cleaner is an innovative magnetic algae scraper designed for glass aquariums. It allows pet parents and aquarists to clean algae buildup from aquarium walls effortlessly—without submerging their hands or disturbing delicate aquatic environments.

Featuring a dual-piece design with powerful neodymium magnets, this cleaner provides a seamless scrubbing experience for both freshwater and saltwater setups. The interior magnet has an abrasive surface for scrubbing, while the exterior magnet glides smoothly along the outer glass. If the magnets detach, the interior piece floats to the surface for quick retrieval.

From betta bowls to large marine tanks, the Mag-Float is your go-to maintenance tool for keeping aquarium glass spotless, clear, and coral-safe.

What Are the Benefits of Using the Mag-Float Floating Magnet Aquarium Cleaner?

Using the Mag-Float goes beyond just cleaning—it's about safe, efficient, and hands-free algae removal. Here's why it stands out:

• Hands Stay Dry: Clean the inside of your tank without reaching in.
  
• Floats to Surface: No more digging in the tank—if detached, the scrubber floats for easy access.
  
• No Rust or Corrosion: Plastic-encased magnets remain rust-free even after long-term use.
  
• Powerful Neodymium Magnets: These rare earth magnets maintain a strong magnetic hold for effortless cleaning.
  
• Safe for Fish and Corals: No harsh chemicals, and no displacing decorations or harming sensitive tank inhabitants.
  
• Freshwater and Saltwater Compatible: Works seamlessly in both environments.
  
• No Cross-Contamination: Prevents soap, lotion, or skin oils from entering the water.
  

How Does the Mag-Float Work?

• The interior magnet, placed inside the tank, has an abrasive "hook & loop" (like Velcro) pad to scrape algae.
  The exterior magnet, covered with soft felt, glides along the outside glass.
• As you move the outer magnet, the interior follows—scrubbing the inner glass.
  
• If the magnets separate, the inner piece floats, making it easy to grab without disturbing tank life.
