Thread: Rock Work Blunder, Glass Cleaning Question

    Default Rock Work Blunder, Glass Cleaning Question

    I had a rock work blunder this weekend. I was using some epoxy to adhere some frags to my live rock. I pressed a bit too hard and my rocks all tumbled. Nothing was too badly damaged thankfully.

    As you can see in the images I have some algae growing on my glass. What is the best way to clean it? I've been using a paper towel and sometimes an acrylic scraper.

    I have turbo snails and a lawnmower blenny.

    Stats:
    Nitrate: 20ppm
    Nitrite: 0ppm
    Ammonia: 0ppm
    pH: 7.6 (working on increasing it)
    Specific Gravity: 1.022

    Anyways, I had to redo my rocks. Here's what it looks like now:

    I use a scraper. Seems to work the best. The mag floats are alot of work, and if you get a grain of sand in there.... scratches!

    I'll continue with the acrylic scraper. I had a float scraper before. They kind of scare me because of the scratch potential.
