I have lots of these but not sure if they are safe to use in the water. I'm making a DIY coral rack and wanted to use these magnets to hold the rack on the glass.

No those are not reef safe.
They will be ok on the outside of the tank.
But I have found that they will start to rust and corrode even on the outside.
