FAQ
Can I use an API scraper on any type of aquarium?
No. API designs two separate scrapers for two different types of aquarium material: glass and acrylic. The appropriate scraper should be used on the corresponding tank to reduce the risk of scratching or damaging your aquarium.
When should I use the API ALGAE SCRAPER?
Use the API ALGAE SCRAPER to eliminate unsightly algae on aquarium walls as needed, but roughly once a week at a minimum to ensure tank cleanliness and clarity. Use any time algae accumulates on the walls of your aquarium.
Can this be used on thinner plastic tanks, like the API 360 view 6 gallon tank?
This API scraper is designed for acrylic tanks only since they’re scratch-resistant. The API Aquarium Tropical 360 View Aquarium Starter Kit in the 6-gallon is constructed of crystal-clear, impact-resistant acrylic, so this scraper would work for that tank.
What is the width of the cleaning pad of API ALGAE SCRAPER?
The measurements of the cleaning pad of API ALGAE SCRAPER are 3 x 3 x 1 inches.
