So I have tons of algae at the moment, and I know blennies, snails etc will take care of it when it's short, but right now some of it's pushing 4" in length. Anyone know where I'd find a nice small pair of scissors (~4" total length?) that can withstand use in a tank? I know there's gotta be somewhere local, but I'm having a nice brain-fart right now. Thanks.
 
Joann Fabrics has some nice high quality stainless stuff if you want smaller scissors, the price isn't amazing, but you have a selection to choose from which I like.
 
I got mine from Longs Drugs. It's their own brand of 4" SS scissors for cutting hair. It goes on sale sometimes, 2 for one. IIRC it cost $7.

I've used it for trimming cheato and preparing nori.
 
Thanks Sid, I'll check them out tomorrow (if they're open).

Phong- it's standard hair algae and/or bryopsis. Snails and fish will eat it if it's short enough, but won't touch the long stuff (IME). I can't just pull it off because not all of my rocks are sturdy enough to take the pulling.

Although I might just take this as a sign to redo the rockwork like I've been wanting to, and get rid of my eibli angel at the same time.
