moovinfast Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Finished acquiring all the parts for my new toys to go in the 240g. Going to wire up the timer for them tonight. But I need a way to attach them to the back corners of the tank but dont want it permanent. I'll probably just try zip ties for now to make sure it works. Ideas? Dont really like suction cups. Is there a cheap strong magnet that will hold through a total of 3/4" worth of acrylic and be able to be in the tank? Or where should I look for cheap strong magnets and I can try to encase in resin?

Gill Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 mag floats wold do the trick, I think (scratch). Maybe you could get some old ones and peal off the black parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Google rare earth magnets. There is a website with some wicked strong magnets. Can't remember the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moovinfast Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 but if I get too strong of a magnet, will it "crush" the acrylic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I can't imagine they would hurt the acrylic. May need to do something to prevent scratching. Those are some cool looking wave boxes. You need to do some video when it is running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I dont get it... how do these boxes get attached in the first place?? They just sit inside the tank or something? (scratch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Scott Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 This is what movinfast wants to do . (I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
