    I am wanting to convert my power heads from the suction cups to magnetic brackets. This is a DIY project but I can't find the right magnets to use. My ph's keep falling and I am sick of it. Can anyone please help?

    I saw where someone made them out of glass cleaners but i was wanting to do something different.

    check out unitednuclear.com those are some seriously strong magnets, not the cheapest though, all kinds of interesting stuff on that site though...hope that helps, I dont know if an algae scrubber has a strong enough magnet to keep it from sliding, maybe if you had felt on the wet side to kinda stick to the glass so it didnt slide...
