    hey everyone, long time no post :)

    So I have a acrylic tank now and Coralline has set in. I was woundering what is the best way to remove Coralline without damaging the acrylic.. some suggested i get old CC, other say use a razor and just be careful, my one friend said to go the natural route and get a urchin.

    So the question I have for all my acrylic owner and pass owners what method has worked for you for removing Coralline without damaging the acrylic?

    The flipper works wonders for he. Don't think it will scratch it.

    The magic eraser works well also. I was shocked as to how easy it was even as to the little elbow grease you had to apply.
