Magnetic Cleaner for 3/4 acrylic

I am looking at the Algae Free Tiger Shark / Tiger Shark Plus or the Magnavore 6ER.
I am tired of the weekly Mr Clean routine and would like to be able to clean my 350 daily.
I have Mag-Floats for my smaller glass tanks, but I don't think they will cut it for the thick acrylic.
Opinions?

I had a Magnavore 6er with my acrylic tank which was 3/4". Great magnet. Plenty of strength and no problem with scratches just watch close for sand.

Get a magnet sleeve to help prevent sand scratches...

The Tunze Care Magnet Strong Algae Cleaner 0220.020 is a GREAT cleaner, IMHO the best magnetic cleaner on the market.
