Upsizing Magnetic Cleaners

I am looking at buying an algaefree magnet. I have a 120G with 3/8"" inch glass.

The pirhana covers up to 3/8, and the hammerhead from 1/2 to 5/8".

Id rather buy the hammerhead now if i am going to invest the money so it will last me if/when i upgrade.

Any problems running a stronger magnet and thinner glass?

Thanks,

Adam

Shouldn't be a problem. It will just be that much stronger.

Larger the better it cleans the glass better, stronger magnet.
