I just was thinking about what material could be used that would not require scraping... If you could get a large square of Velcro that should work perfect right?! (the ruff side) you could take two sheets and sew them together...? Let me know what you all think...

Some people were going to try it but never reported back. I think it would be hard to see the algae, and it would block too much light, and would be damaged when you got to the point of having to use a hack saw to remove the turf. Plus the adhesive would let go.

Thick brown turf needs to be "sawed" off the screen, so that GHA can attach.

Wow, didnt know that... My tank is still only growing a dark power algae so it's been easy to remove so far... Working on tweaking it still
