Coralline on tank glass
Was just wondering if any of you folks have come up with a good way to get coralline out of the rounded corners of a cube tank. My scraper does a good job on the flat glass, but haven't found anything good yet for the corners.

Most LFS will sell some sort of scrub pad for this type of thing. Just cut it down to about the size of a quarter and scrub away with your index finger. The trick is to stay ahead of it once it's gone though. GL.

Try an old credit card or if you have a good hardware store they might carry the plastic single edge razor blades.

There are people who swear by mr clean magic erasers for stuff like this. I don't think its strong enough to clear up a solid colony, but once you knock it back they are good for maintenance. I've used them on my acrylic bits here and there with good results.
