Yea it's still going strong. I have to post some pictures updates. Been really busy with a kitchen remodel but it's almost finished.

We'll incase anyone is still following I'm trying to get a refund. I went to my bank today to report fruad and see if they will be able to get me my money. If I cant get my money I figure maybe that will put a little fear into the company to finish my pieces maybe.

What company was it ? I want to make sure I don't use them when I get my tank

How is the acrylic as far as cleaning and maintenance? Is scratches an issue ?

I believe it was American aquarium out of Pittsburgh. And I thought it was gonna be bad with scratches but just watch what your doing and be cautious and your in the clear. The way I was thinking if you just looked at it the wrong way it would scratch but it's pretty tuff stuff. If ya do happen to scratch it they have buffing kits.

So American Aquarium is the one you had the issues with ?

That is good to hear about the scratching , I will be very careful so that is great news . Do you use a magnet cleaner? If so which type

I use a scraper with an acrylic safe blade. I was worried about using a magnet cleaner with stuff getting stuck between it and gouging it.

What brand of scraper , what does it have a plastic blade

I find the mighty magnets intriguing and also they sell a scratch removal kit

I have mighty magnet and it has many options for cleaning. Does a great job. Only issue is when I pick up sand. Oops, my bad. It is fast, and strong.

I just use a Kent brand. it has a telescopic pole so that's a life saver with my deep tank so I don't have to dive in.
