Nuvo 16 - Recommendations for a scraper small enough for the back areas?

[neverrain]

A lot of Marine Depot doesn't list scraper sizes, so it's essentially a wall of scrapers on the page.

 

Anyone with one of these tanks able to recommend a scraper so the back parts of the tank can be scraped? The smallest scrapable wall is 2.75" wide, so the blade can't be bigger than that.

 

Thanks in advance.

Two Little Fishies Nano? Or maybe the nanoflipper?

You can make your own, buy a box of razors and a few . acrylic rods. Melt a blade I to the acrylic rod and wahla. When the blade rust out, heat the rod up and pull the blade out and replace with new.blade. works awesome

The problem with that is my hands don't really fit in the back parts where I want to clean. A stick based one would work a lot better,

I don't have anything that can heat up the acrylic enough to make this work. My stove is electric as well.

That's exactly what I am looking for. What did you use for the stick?

[StevieT]

I welded on a 1/2 square acrylic bar. It is exactly for my IM 16 as well.

 

If you want one pm me and we'll talk Monday. Like $8 shipped. I can make the stick whatever length you want.

Absolutely. I want one of those corner scrapers anyway. If you can use yours on your16 in the back without issue, whatever length your is, is fine.

 

I'll shoot you a PM. I appreciate the help.
