I have a sponge, but my clownfish keeps biting me. Does anyone know of any good algae cleaning things that aren't inverts? My hermit crabs are just too lazy to get the job done.
 
What kind of algae are you talking about? I keep a magfloat on the glass to take off film algae. If I need to do a bit deeper cleaning of the glass then I’ll use this thing. Mostly hands free cleaning
 
magfloat +1. Or a razor blade and a arm-length glove, I doubt a clownfish can harm you through a thick glove.

It's a minor issue, but there's some algae buildup on the walls at the back of my Fluval Flex 15-gallon tank and a little bit on the glass. I tried testing it before my clownfish violently bit me to see if it’s manageable, and it is.
 
Thinking of purchasing this. As I've seen many videos on YouTube with this working successfully.

I've already got a bitey cat so no clownfish for me.

This looks like it will get the job done
