Glass too thick for xf330 gyres

[Jase4224]

*xf 230 not 330

What can I do to hack a solution to this?

These were at the top of my budget and replacing is not an option, I should have looked into this earlier but life is busy.

Any advice appreciated!

Wow that is great but very $$$$ that would be nearly $100AU for a magnet, and I bet I need one for each pump!

I’m thinking I might try the double sided silicone tape. It’s super sticky but I can peel off and replace when I drop some water to do water changes, that’s when I’ll clean the pumps.

This is the reason why i went for 280's instead of 230's as the 280 already has the stronger magnets on as standard.

Yeah that would be ideal but were out of my budget unfortunately..
