Down and Dirty Mag Frag holder

[JTP424]

Wanted something under $20 for a single frag holder I could put in my tank. Came up with the following.
Acrylic, sealed magnets, plastic epoxy. Have had two in my display for a few weeks, no negative impact so far!





If other people are interested let me know!

This is a great little design.

Greatly appreciate it! Went through a couple different magnet options before deciding.
Using "Same-Stuff" welder since they no longer seem to make Tenax.

Not familiar with these. What are they?

Edit : looked them up. Looks like private label weldon. I like it. Especially the selections of applicators. We offer lots of small diy tanks and this stuff looks like it would work well for those.

Tenax-7R is an acrylic bonder, it got replaced by "same-stuff" plastic welder. Pretty good at capillary action, would be good for your DIY Tanks!

The ones we have played around with are ceramic "waterproof" but shatter easily. Thinking about potting them in epoxy to really make them waterproof.
