Seachem Duo Algae Pad

• Melamine Foam, Micro Abrasive Technology with Added Durable Scrubbing Surface.
• Safe for Glass and Acrylic.
• No Soaps or Detergents.
• Effectively Removes Algae From Scratches.

The Seachem DuoPad is a non-scratch, dual surface algae pad for glass & acrylic. The melamine foam side uses micro abrasive technology to easily remove algae from the sides of your aquarium, while the durable scrubbing side allows you to attack the rougher grooves of rocks and driftwood. It is particularly effective at removing algae from scratches. It is chemically inert and does not use soaps or detergents. It’s white color contrasts against dark algae making it easier to see when areas are fully clean.

More on Melamine

Melamine foam is incredibly effective abrasive cleaner. It has a microstructure as hard as glass, but because of its open-cell structure it remains flexible. It performs on stains a lot like extremely fine sandpaper. In the aquarium, it easily removes algae by scraping with its extremely hard microscopic filaments.

Sizes: 4.5 inch x 1 inch x 2.5 inch (1 Pack)

Specifications

A non-scratch dual-surface algae pad for glass and acrylic, 4.5 × 2.5 × 1 in (11.4 × 6.4 × 2.5 cm), one pad per pack.

Melamine foam on one face, a durable scrubbing surface on the other. Chemically inert, so it adds nothing to the water.

Setup & Use

Two working faces on one pad: the melamine side for smooth glass and acrylic, the scrubbing side for the rougher grooves of rock and driftwood.

Wet it and wipe: no soap, no detergent. Using the scrubbing side on rough surfaces is what keeps the melamine side intact, since melamine wears away fast on anything textured.

Every batch we dispatch carries a minimum of 6 months’ remaining shelf life. Store this product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, with the cap or inner foil closed tightly after each use.

Filter media and substrates carry no manufacturing or expiry date. Their working life begins on first contact with water, not on the shelf.
