Aquarium landscapes has a nice set. It's good for the money. The Gravel
leveler is a worthy tool IMO. I use it seldom for that purpose. I use a
paint scaper which is plastic and floats in the same fashion. I use it for
pushing back plants from the front/sides of the glass, chopping runner down
in the gravel, cutting sods of gloss, hairgrass, etc out. The scissors are
nice, the Tweezers are fine but I like bigger ones myself. Hemostats are
good as well. Depends on how much you want to spend also. There's some
German companies that sell all kinds of goodies.
