CONTINUUM AquaBlade M Scraper Short

Description

Built for performance. By design.
With its solid construction, safe for acrylic* blades, and molded-in fiberglass handles, the AquaBlade looks beautiful. And works beautifully.

Blades full of sharp ideas.
The AquaBlade cyan blade was created by testing countless different types of plastics and plastic blends. The results are a special self lubricating plastic that is softer than acrylic, so it will not scratch acrylic*. Constructed of 316 stainless steel, the AquaBlade metal blade is both strong and rust resistant so removing that stubborn coralline algae is a breeze.

Compatibility Built-In
100% Backwards compatible with previous units. Our scraper fits the old blades, our blades fit the old scraper.

Strength and beauty.
By utilizing virgin plastic in the molding process instead of re-grind or recycled plastics, the AquaBlade is much stronger and more agile than other scrapers. The first time you pick up an AquaBlade you’ll notice the difference it makes. It feels strong and durable — perfect for work inside your aquarium.

No hollowness. No odor.
The AquaBlade is injected molded as a solid piece of plastic which keeps water from entering the unit while using. This means no hollow handles and drizzling of excess water when removed from the aquarium. And without trapped aquarium water inside the scraper it will never develop odors from growing bacteria.

Continuum AquaBlade M Scraper Short for Nano Tanks

The Short version of the AquaBlade M packs the same solid-moulded, fused-handle build into a more compact length that suits nano tanks and the smaller setups common in HDB and condo homes. There is no hollow cavity to hold water, so it does not drip across your cabinet or develop odours from trapped tank water, a small thing that makes weekly cleaning more pleasant.

It takes both blade options: a soft self-lubricating plastic blade safe for acrylic, and a rust-resistant 316 stainless blade for stripping coralline and hardened algae off glass. Made from virgin plastic rather than recycled regrind, it feels stiff and controlled, which helps in a tight nano where you do not want to bump delicate scaping or stir up the substrate.

Use the plastic blade on acrylic and the steel on glass. See our glass cleaning guide and aquascape maintenance tools guide. Browse more in cleaning and maintenance.
