This time I was sitting at my computer (where the frag rack is in my peripheral vision a few feet away) literally typing out a post for this thread when one of the magnets clattered to the floor - I look over just in time to see the frags all tumble out on to the sand. I have a new coral beauty angelfish (keeping my fingers crossed tight that this guy isn't an SPS connoisseur) that has been all over the film algae that's starting on the frag rack, I think he may be the proverbial straw. Over and over and over again.

Do you think I could get away with only putting the neodymium magnets on the outside of the glass, or would I need to replace the ones that are on the water side as well? If just the outside, is the plasti-dip still required, or will the scratch the glass without it?
