I can’t find them** A: I am sorry to tell you. but you will find them hard to get as we discontinued the replacement pads in the past six months (timing varied by the pad). The rationale was very few people ever replaced the pads which caused retailers to stop carrying them which of course led to us discontinuing when we ran out. **Q: Does this work okay with a bowfront tank? I don't know if the curve of the glass would throw the magnet off or another detriment I am not foreseeing** A: I am using a small magnet on a 70 gallon glass bow front. I didn't think it would work, but after a little while the pad adjusted to the curve. Use short strokes and it works great! **Q: Replacement pad?** A: You have to check with amazon or just by a new one **Q: The instructions mentions a black cleaning pad for glass, but my package only came with the blue one? Is that normal?** A: It should have came with 2 pads mine did ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***. on June 27, 2023* Acuario de 45 litros y funciona muy bien. El imán es potente. Viene con dos tipos de limpiadores uno con una especie de fieltro y otro con un cepillo de finas cerdas ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***A on November 13, 2025* FAST ARRIVAL, STRONG MAGNET, DO THE WORK FOR THE PRICE! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***Y on October 15, 2025* Great quality, very strong magnets, this is perfect for my 10 gallon aquarium. It comes with 2 scrubbing pads that snap into place so you can use it for glass or acrylic tanks. The pad for glass has a warning printed on the back to advise it is ONLY for glass, that will help you tell them apart if needed. Otherwise blue scrubber for acrylic and black scrubber for glass. This is very effective at cleaning the inside of the tank. Intuitive design and size. There is a nub on one end to keep the scrubbing above the substrate. You can go slowly around the corner and the scrubber will hop to stick to the next side of the tank. This does not float, but will sink straight down if separated. This is my 2nd one to be able to keep nearby for both the upstairs and downstairs tanks. You can compare the included before and after pictures - on the before pic you can see the clean paths from snail travel on the inside of the glass, on the second we are nice and clear - victory!. ## Frequently Bought Together - Aqueon Aquarium Algae Cleaning Magnets Glass/Acrylic, Small, Black - Tetra Water Cleaner Gravel Siphon for Aquariums, Easily Clean Freshwater Aquariums - PAIZOO Fish Tank Digital Thermometer Accurate LED Display to ±0.9°F Tank Thermometer Aquarium Temperature Measurement Suitable for Fish, Axolotl, Turtle or Aquatic --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nl/products/730711280-aqueon-06170-algae-cleaning-magnet-small-by-aqueon](https://www.desertcart.nl/products/730711280-aqueon-06170-algae-cleaning-magnet-small-by-aqueon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Netherlands* *Store origin: NL* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
