Flipper Pico 2-in-1 Magnet Cleaner

Keep even the smallest tank spotless with the Flipper Pico, the fun-sized version of Flipper’s signature 2-in-1 magnetic cleaner. One side is an abrasive scrubbing pad for daily soft algae, and with a simple twist of the handle it flips inside the tank to a stainless scraper blade for stubborn spots, all without getting your hands wet. Powerful rare earth magnets and a compact design make it perfect for nano and pico aquariums. Need a larger model? Compare the Nano, Standard, and MAX, or browse all our aquarium cleaners and tools.
