    Pond Glass

    Good evening everyone I have a 33mm thick 2000mm by 800mm glass window in my pond and currently use a pond scrubber to clean it but it is not that effective anyone use anything that makes life easier.

    Thank you

    People use a piece of jap matting, although I use a good sponge pad the green side.

    I use one of these. The brush easily gets rid of algae, adn the scraper gets rid of tougher bits. Plus, dry hands!!!

    a cheap knitted glove works a treat, though in late winter i do have to drop the levels a little to make it possible to clean to the bottom of it with out some pain in the old frost bite

    I taped a domestic scrubbing brush to a bit of electrical conduit. Worked a treat.

    I cant reach all the glass without the scrubber having a pole the halfords thing looks a good bet that Mitsufishi recommends. I have seen large a magnet cleaner on amazon from germany a while back but it was £90 no longer available if it made life easy I would have gone for that.

    that's sounds very cheap for the glass thickness, the ones you see used by monseterfishkeeper.com and also large home aquarium users tend to be very expensive once you start getting into thicker glass size, though there is a robotic glass cleaner on sale if you have £'s to burn
