Any thoughts on what to do if your vortech magnet isn't strong enough to hold? My new tanks glass is over 3/4 inch thick. Holds but can move pretty easily. Tried with pin spacer removed as well
 
BRS used one on their BRS160 tank that is 3/4", they said in the video that the company sold an upgraded magnet for 3/4"+ thickness.
 
do you have the rubber spacer on the dry side? That thing helps the dry side stay on the glass better
Rubber spacer is on
found this on the magnet upgrade for the wet side

i was able to speak with someone locally who used to work for ecotech. He said to use the square adhesive connected to the cord positioned to help support the dry sides weight. It's helped so far with no sliding present. Other option is to upgrade to an mp60. Could use the extra flow anyways. Thanks for the help!
