Magnetic Aquarium Cleaner Hagen Marina Skrobak Mały — small magnetic glass scraper

Hagen Marina Skrobak Mały is a small magnetic aquarium glass scraper designed for routine removal of algae and light deposits from aquarium panes. The two-part magnetic construction lets the user clean from outside the tank while the inner blade remains in contact with the glass, enabling quick removal of soft to moderate growth without immersion. The compact size is suitable for confined spaces and for precise cleaning near decorations and silicone seams in both freshwater and saltwater glass aquariums.

Advantages

The magnetic scraper offers a simple, one-handed cleaning method that keeps hands and equipment dry. Its two-component design holds the cleaning blade against the glass with steady magnetic pressure, improving contact and reducing streaks. The small form factor allows access to narrow gaps and detailed areas; the blade removes soft algae effectively while minimizing the need to disturb aquarium inhabitants or remove water for maintenance.

Suitable for

• Routine algae removal on glass aquarium panes
• Cleaning around decorations, plants and silicone seams
• Small and medium freshwater aquariums
• Marine aquaria with standard glass thickness

Key specifications

• Type: two-part magnetic glass scraper
• Size: small / compact design for close work
• Blade contact: inner blade designed to run against glass
• Compatible with: standard aquarium glass panes (freshwater and saltwater)
• Operation: external cleaning without inserting the user’s hand into the tank

How to use

Place the inner part with the cleaning blade inside the aquarium against the glass and align the outer magnetic part on the outside pane. Move the outer magnet in steady strokes to scrub algae and deposits; apply light to moderate pressure depending on deposit thickness. For best results, perform slow, repeated passes rather than rapid motions. Avoid using on acrylic or plastic panes unless the blade is specifically safe for those materials.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the blade regularly for wear and replace when it becomes blunt or shows signs of damage. Start cleaning in an unobtrusive area to confirm magnetic alignment and to avoid sudden detachment. Rinse the inner part with tank water after use to remove loosened debris and prevent introducing contaminants. For hard or calcified deposits, consider using a dedicated scraper or chemical treatment suitable for aquarium use.
