Who’s got a link to something that’s not 3 inches wide for glass please ? Tired of cleaning huge tanks with little scraper . Thank you in advance .
 
I got 7 bristle nose 😀. Looking for something huge for bottom of tank mostly .
 
Best algae scraper on the market...and it's not on the market, at least not for aquarium use. This scraper is sold in the paint department of hardware/home stores. Heavy duty stainless blade, massive comfortable handle, threaded at the back end to screw onto an appropriately-sized broomstick for deeper tanks. It'll never break like the cheapo plastic chopsticks sold in the LFS.

This one is about 4 inches wide, but I've got others up to about 8 inches in width. No weak magnets, and unlike plecos...these things don't convert 10g of algae into a kilogram of poop. :)

That’s what I’m talking about what is that actually for or called so I can get the right one ?

Beats me...paint scraper? It's on the same wall as paint brushes, paint sponges, etc. It's intended to use, usually with a heat gun, to scrape off old paint before applying a new coat.

edited to add: I've only used it on glass, not sure about acrylic.
