Default Waveboxes with Eurobracing

For the Tunze waveboxes, do you pretty much need the magnet holders if your tank has Eurobracing?

One or two? Does the 6200 work well enough on its own (1/2" glass) or is it better to plan on using two magnets to hold these guys up?

Thanks..

1/2 glass on your tank? Are you using the 6080 or the 6200 magnet?

I have one and a half on mine. The top one will not fit on the outside of the tank as the Euro-brace is in the way. I had installed both on the wavebox and it is near impossible to get them off without breaking the wavebox in the process. The top one on the wavebox side sit just under the Euro-brace and steadies the wavebox keeping it snug to the glass.

Ooh, right, the 6200 might be a bit too much then for 1/2" glass espescially with two? Maybe I should start with two 6080's and see how it goes...

thanks
