This is very interesting.

I've been having the same problems as the OP and if you haven't been following I have this thread about it...

Now, I had several things going on in my tank so this may not be the cause of my issues, but since I have the same magnet I had to take a look! My only complaint thus far is that the glue that holds the clip to the magnet sucks. I've reglued it several times already, but I love using this magnet. Since i've been thinking of replacing it with a new one, I went ahead and disassembled this one just now. I couldn't get the white cover off that you mentioned was "like a sticker". Mine was glued on tight. But I was able to slip the white casing out of the black outer sleeve and look what I found!









I'm confused as to why this magnet isn't completely sealed!

Well, obviously this magnet is now OUT of my tank.

I've always left it in there 24/7 before.

It's been in my tank for 2 years! No more.

What a bummer, too because I REALLY loved this thing.



Thanks for posting!!!
