therme algea scubber -the arrival

razz · 11-25-2006, 03:33 PM

well i contacted the company last week and today the therme algae terminater came..i have a lot of green and coraline algea that needs attention so great timming..
gotta say the unit is very well packaged in a plastic tub with different compartments for the different parts , and arrived in a few days. lottsa parts and instructions included ,so i plan to fire it up over the weekend and give you all an idea how it works..so far so good

thats a neat lil package...will it become the next ''must have'' fashion accesory?

btw, I think its cool that you are trying this product first and reviewing it on RS

well i tried the therme algea terminater over the weekend and this is how it went..at first glance it seemed like it would be difficult with all the different magnets ,connections ect. but easy to follow instructions so no problems..
when i first started using the product i wasnt getting it to work untill i again read the instructions to learn you must heat it up (bring water to a boil) and once its heated it gets pretty easy..just cruise it over the coraline algea for a few seconds and continue on to other problem areas..after doing the whole front the algea had all turned white and was very easy to scrape off..
now i only tried the terminater on my glass tank so far and havnt tried the scrappers or magnets for the green and other algea but so far for the coraline algea ITS A THUMBS UP..
i will test on acrlic later and the scrapper and give another opinion then..later mark
