    Hello!

    Here is the screen in my algaescrubber 2 after 6 days of growth.

    For an singel sided scrubber i think theese Steni plates is great for use as screens, the algae is very though to get of the screen, it is al lot easier with the plastic canvas in the middle. The Steni plates is very easy to handle when cleaning etc, and the Steni plates is great if the screens should be placed free standing.

    Touch the screen while flowing and see if you have the same flow on all parts.

    Hello!

    You might have misunderstod me, i dont meen the differense in growth. The differense in growth on the Steni and plastic canvas is just beacuse that the Steni plates is have been running for some time now, the plastic canvas is reacently started.

    But it seem to me that the algae is mutch more attached to the Steni plates vs the plastic canvas. Even when new the algae was though to scrape of the Steni plates, the algae seem to be mutch more easy to scrape of the plastic canvas.

    Probably because the canvas is made out of non-stick polymer.
