so i was all excited about to spawn two tubs. and when i tried putting the filter between the magnets. my filters are far too thick. the magnets won't hold them in place. im going to have to use poilyfil for now until i can make those filters thinner or find some ez felt. it sux the magnets are extremely weak for me. even when i turn them in 360 degree rotations to see if its stronger. the thickness of the filter won't even let the magnets get very close to each other at all. im going to have to fix the filters.... to be continued...

I bought a bunch of new tubs and put my silicone and filters on right after I spawned it.  I figure it's going to sit around spawn running, might as well put new filters on them right with it.  Didn't hurt a thing :smile:

Yeah, there can't be anything between the magnets. The dark sides have to be facing each other with nothing in between. They are still kind of weak, but hold this way.

ah ok. from the picture i thought you were putting one magnet rtv'ed to the tub. then the filter, then the other magnet to hold it. i looked at it incorrectly. damn i really wanted this to be like a holding thing without having to silicone anything to the tub. well ill try it when i do the next set of tubs!

The sticky on my magnets are good enough that you don't even have to pre sand or RTV them.  They adhere quite strongly to the tub by itself. 

However, I do crazy glue my EZFelt to the magnets.  I'm also planning on gluing a piece of cardboard or something to the back of each of my colonization magnets so they are more rigid and not so flimsy.

:thumbup: In my opinion, the jury is still out on whether the extra effort is worth it not. The magnets can be added at anytime though.

Chief, how are you sticking the magnets to the tub? is the plastic sandwiched in between?

I just don't understand. Does you magnets have a sticky back or something? I'm trying to figure out how they stick to the tub.

I got mine at a crafts store, they were expensive...  Seen something like them on Amazon or Ebay for a decent price though.

I love this idea with the magnets!! Even if it's only for appearances, looks more professional.  :rockon: once I get situated in my new place and everything up and running again, I'm gonna attempt to make these.
I noticed my last tub, bottom polyfil seemed to have aerial mycelium grow up and onto the poly hanging over the substrate.

Michaels craft stores have sticky backed magnets.

sockadin do you think those magnets are any stronger than the ac vent magnets?

i really want to do away with siliconing the filter to the magnet. i want the magnet to hold my filter in.

The Micheal's ones are what I used.  They worked great but cost 20 bucks for a small sheet, which isn't cost effective for doing multiple tubs.

I got a sticky back 1x2 roll at hobby lobby for $10 and they seem stronger than the vent covers. They are thinner so I can see why using a drill would be harder.

It's really hard to say because this thing is still new and in development. I happened to already have vent covers when I first wrote this, so I could test the strength and they are ok if you line them up right. The roll I recently bought, I opened up the box at the store and checked it out and they seem a little stronger.

There seems to be pole lines in the sheets and if you cut them and the opposite poles don't line up, they barely stick. But, if you get the opposite poles lined up, they stick pretty well. You may have to play with them to see what I'm talking about. I'm no magnet expert and that's as good as I know to explain it.
