Overview
Keeping the front glass free of algae film is one of those small, constant reef tank chores, and the right magnetic cleaner makes a real difference to how easy it is. Tunze's Care Magnet Pico is the most compact model in the range, built around special angled plastic blades that clean more effectively than a flat scraper while staying gentle on thinner glass.
It's purpose-built for nano and pico tanks, where a full-sized cleaner is often too bulky to manoeuvre comfortably.
Key features
- Suits glass thickness from 3mm to 6mm (1/8in to 1/4in)
- Special wear-resistant plastic blades remove more algae than a flat cleaning surface
- Inner magnet sits more than 3mm from the glass, reducing the risk of sand jamming or glass damage
- Significantly more compact than conventional small algae magnets
- Rounded blade edges allow smooth transitions across silicone joints without damage
Who it's for
Owners of nano and pico reef tanks with thinner glass who want an effective, compact cleaning tool that's easy to manoeuvre in a small footprint.
Setup & tips
- Check both the cleaner and the glass are free of sand or grit before each use to avoid scratching
- The plastic blade on this model isn't user-replaceable, so treat it gently to extend its working life
- Not recommended for acrylic tanks under normal use
- Keep the magnet moving in smooth, overlapping strokes rather than pressing hard in one spot
