My 5 foot long WB 190.5 tank is in the corner of a room, so cleaning the back left glass panel is not possible without going from the inside with a scraper. Wondering if anyone has cut some removable acrylic or glass panels to pull out for easy cleaning? I guess maybe a magnet to keep it in place?
 
I would suggest to go to the local hardware store to the cut acrylic. Then you will have to imbed or incase the magnets so that the metal with not leach into the system.

Sounds like a great idea. Hold them in place with pumps or something. Overflow box covers, covers for everything, lol
