A long time hobbyist of 35+ years it seems the battle against Algae is one that will rage on indefinitely. This scrubber is excellent. Thick and coarse spun nylon makes removal of both green and brown algae as effortless as it can be. The scrubber is perfect for the sides and bottom and equally effective in edges for corners and those hard to reach places.Acrylic tanks are gorgeous but as you already know they scratch easily I've never had a problem using these, just always make sure to never use the pad on dry acrylic above the water line.
A few of my tanks get indirect sunlight so for those it's a weekly effort and I keep lots of these and the smaller single pads on hand, It's important especially if you keep a variety of different species in separate aquariums to avoid cross contamination and the Lee's line of scrubbers for both glass and acrylic are affordable enough for each tank to have a dedicated set.
Cross contamination has long been linked to toxic tank syndrome which can wipe out your tank in 24 hours, so best to have gear that's dedicated to one specific tank.
5 FINS UP!
