I am glad to hear others are using this before I get it, ray is closer to me if he sells it would be great I will have to ask him I love the idea of this because my tanks is 24" deep and to find a scraper long enough without getting my hands wet is tough
thanks

So I finally made my way to marinescape and picked up one of these with a pack of replacement blades because I have a lot of coraline all over the glass, all I can say OMG this thing is incredible, if you have aga you need to get one of these, your magfloats are nothing without them 25 secs all the coraline gone from the tank (except the back which is a pita to get to)

Be careful going too close to the silly cone...  I leave about 1/4 - 1/2 inch and do it by hand every so often...  Silly cone is the most important part of your tank!
