Geez Myka, plan ahead. If you got time to buy fish you got time to buy a few presents. Waiting until the last minute never works.

A reed switch works on magnetism, same type of switch you'd find on windows and doors for alarms. Problem is the OM has a thick plastic casing and you'd need pretty powerful switch to work properly...
