scrapers.

Hey guys. I was looking at buying a scraper to get some off this tough algea my magent cleaner can't get off. But I don't know if it'll be better/safer to get the plastic blade or the metal blade one. What do you guys/girls think?

If it's a glass tank a straight razor blade works great. Make sure you don't use one on an acrylic tank though. Use an old credit card for acrylic.

Try a credit card.
