I have also heard of what Kryptic is talking about. I think you put epoxy into a bottle cap and then the magnet and then more 2 part epoxy. I have not tried this yet, but will. You would have to wait for the first application of epoxy to at least harden a little.

i'm looking at finding out how to cure the magnets i'm assuming that leaching or rusting would occur if we just use them bare in the tank?

You cant "cure" them. You encase them in something reef safe.

fortyfathoms.net has fragmags. Just go to the forum and look under dry goods section.

I read a post somewhere. I can't find it now.
They just took the rare earth magnets, poured some epoxy in a..... I think it was a pop bottle bottom or a film canister..... whatever I guess that will fit what you need and once the 1/4" bottom layer is poured, place the magnets in and cover completely with more epoxy. I'll try an find the link.
