| Frag Rack I finally made a frag rack. If anyone is interested I can make one for you. Just give me the dimensions you would like. Mine is 8"x4" and each magnet can hold 21.5 lbs! It can easily hold a full rack of frags on a tank that has 1" thick glass.  _________ 120 gallon mixed reef, 30 gallon refugium, two 250 watt Phoenix 14K DE metal halides in Lumenarc stealth reflectors, Two 48" T-5's in TEK II reflectors, AquaC EV-120 protein skimmer, Mag Drive 12 return pump, one Hydor Koralia 4 My tank thread |

| If you want the frags check out Reef Empire - Live Coral Shop. I bought some SPS frags, orange/red yuma's and a nice green Hammer Ancora from them that arrived today. |

| What's really nice about the magnets is that it allows me to gradually move the frag rack up the glass. This is great for acclimating new corals to their new lighting environment. An 8"x4" frag rack will hold 21 frags. The magnets are rubber coated so there are no ill effects from the magnets being in the saltwater. |

| what are the demensions of your magnets?
I am going to use Neodymium magnets to make my DIY Max-jet holders. I was thinking 1" x 1/4" (65lbs holding strength), but wondered if it was overkill? |
