	poll: magnetic glass cleaners
NowherMan6 Fish Master Posts: 1880 Kudos: 922 Votes: 69 Registered: 21-Jun-2004	Question: Do they work if there is a background on the back of a tank? Say for example, if you have a posterboard black background - would it still work over the posterboard, or would you have to take it down to use it? *Back in the saddle!*

The only brand I've tried though that seems to work well is MagFloat... All the other ones just seem sort of crappy in comparison. I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

Since they're so easy to use, it's not asking much to scrub twice a week or even daily. -Molly Visit shelldwellers.com!

When they first came out it was always a pain to pull them out of a deep tank when the inside one broke free. Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody. -- Mark Twain
