Any one have any magnets I can mount my mj1200's with I know sure flow makes them but they are $50. Just seeing if anyone has an alternative solution.

these work for everything. you can also glue frags to them or glue to eggcreate for frag racks.

I am currently using them for a frag rack on my 90gal and have brushed it off several times, not too strong. Strong enough for a frag rack but I doubt anything much heavier.

You could coat them in some kind of epoxy?

Had some picked up...they work fine on my 72g but the glass isn't as thick as my 9og. I am using 2 per mj1200 in conjunction with 1 suction cup, No real modification required. So being that my mj1200's are in my 72g and hydors in my 90g, I am okeedokee for now....:biggrin:
