I, being the ignorant Newblet I am, just went and bought an algae scraper for my 55 gal saltwater tank. The LFS only had one on the shelf and without thinking, I brought home a metal-bladed scraper. Having cut myself and not taken the hint trying to get the plastic off, I proceeded to scrape the gunk off the inside of the tank and all four panes later, discover that there are scratches EVERYWHERE. Not happy. Not happy to the point of tears. So I murdered the scraper for murdering my tank.
Here's the question, what scraper IS safe for my tank or should I just be patient and let the inverts take care of it? (When I get them)
