Got the algae mower from Gemsurfs.

Not sure if there's a review being done but did a search n can't find any.

So here goes.

This is the package.

I didn't take time to read and understand the paper instructions. Did a search on YouTube and there's a video showing the assembling process.

The drill bit can be removed So tat yr small funnel can be used to suck up detrius on lr.

On first grip of the handle, felt a bit hollow. Gives me the feel tat the handle might be brittle n break.

Dipped the vac into the water n was quite impressed with the suction. The big funnel is good for cleaning the small stones. The small funnel is great for cleaning detrius on the lr.

After using a while, you will feel gain confidence with the handle.

Is using energizer max battery to test out. Not yet test with dc adapter. Would wonder if suction will be stronger.

Great tool for cleaning detrius on the rocks.
