Abstract
An aquarium cleaning device for cleaning an inner surface of an aquarium wall includes a flexible cleaning body and a flexible handle member. The cleaning body and the handle member are magnetically attracted to each other. The flexibility in the cleaning body and the handle member allows the cleaning device to contour and conform to curved surfaces in the aquarium tank. The flexibility of the cleaning body and handle member are achieved by areas of flexibility having alternating recesses and fins.
