Product Description
- Floats to the surface for easy retrieval.
- Improved blade design for more effective cleaning
- Low profile design for cleaning hard to reach areas of the tank.
- Made with rare earth magnets for incredible cleaning strength and durability. Cleans even the most stubborn coralline algae.
- Blade side has only 3 contact points resulting in a 3mm gap between the cleaner and the glass. This minimizes the chance of trapping sand, and thus reduces the chance of scratching, even when cleaning below the sand!.
- Unique orienting buoyancy always keeps the magnets facing the glass for easy retrieval. Plus, Flipper is nearly neutral buoyancy so it does not sink like a stone if the magnets are disengaged.
- Includes Stainless Steel blade for glass tanks. It is suggested to replace blades every 3-6 months to maintain optimal algae scraping.
- Designed for medium sized tanks - 1/4" - 1/2" or 30-150 Gallons

Flipper use Review by Dearth
Quality Price Value When I first received the flipper was impressed with the magnet strength and if you put your finger between the two magnets you will cry because it does hurt. Unlike most scrapers it is designed to stay in the tank if you so wish.
It took a bit to figure out how to flip the flipper even after watching videos on it make sure you are in a low flow area away from rocks and coral as it does require some room to flip (about 3 inches) the scraper side works beautifully and unlike most scraper designs this is designed to actually go into the sand if needed as the unit has a fairly significant gap on the scraper side to let sand fall out and prevent glass scratching. As I have curved glass tank this works awesomely on the curve without it touching the glass on the inside due to the separation between the body of the scraper and the glass surface
Highly recommend it also comes with scraper attachment for acrylic as well (Posted on 9/14/2018) -
Love it! Review by B
Quality Price Value Took a little bit to figure out how to get it to flip but love it now that I have. It is so convenient to be able to clean with a pad or scraper without actually changing tools or opening the lid on my tank. However, the flipper standard is supposed to be rated up to 1/2" glass and on my 1/2" glass I find the magnet to be weak. I have to be careful with where I flip, how fast I wipe with the pad and I find it is not quite strong enough to scrape the firm algeas. I would recommend the Max for 1/2"+ glass which I will buy next time. (Posted on 9/11/2017)
