Default Algea magnet on 3/4 inch glass

So my glass is 3/4 thick (guy that build it went overkill, but i dont mind). I was wondering what a good Magnet would be? wanted to use the flipper as it has a scraper build in, but it says max 1/2 inch glass.

There's no comparison between the Vetrex Hex and the Hammerhead. Go with the Hammerhead. I have both

I have the HH on my 1/2" glass, so for 3/4, I'd go bigger.
