Naekuh Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 i heard that has a slight magnetic charge, so it causes hell when you use a magnetic scraper with it. can you confirm? Quote Link to comment

I have heard it’s magnetic also but have not had any issues, plus I use a traditional scrapper (continuum aquablade). Tanks been running for almost 2 years and so far no scratches on the glass. I did drop the magnet to my wave maker on the sand once and I don’t recall it picking up any sand. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mike P Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 A closer shot of my acans and you can see the micromussa in the far right corner. I think these are some of my favorite corals Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Certain black sand is magnetic but not all of it. It depends on the brand. I used the caribsea black Hawaiian, it didn't stick to my magnet cleaner but it turned out to be a detritus trap. The acans look great. I love acans! 1 Quote Link to comment
Mike P Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 I vacuum my sand frequently and since I started using the prodibio nano kit my detritus has come under control and the sand looks much cleaner. 1 Quote Link to comment
