Like the title says, I bought these 2 mp 10's and figured I could make them stay in place with a weaker magnetic attraction than optimal. I didn't however think about how the weak attraction would cause problems with spinning the propeller.

Yeah, its a shame as I’d love to add a pair of these to the back wall of my tank for additional flow, but my 1/2” glass prevents that. :(
