Co-op Algae Scrubber Win

[MickS77]

I love these sponges. They work great and easily rinse clean. I make sure to add a few to every order. 

I found its easy using mandoline slicer to trim the sponge down into thin sheets. Perfect to use under a magnet cleaner. Depending on the strength of your magnet, slice the sponge thinner or thicker.

When cutting apply even light pressure with the palm of your hand, go slow, and be careful . Most slicers come with an attachment to hold things while slicing, that may work too.

By your title, I thought the Co-op had come out with an algae scrubber (a device designed to grow beneficial algae to help clean the water and provide algae for food).

The magic eraser sponges are cool though.

@MickS77, That looks very interesting.  Will have to try it out.  I have been doing something similar and were freezing the sponges for easier cutting.
