Best place to buy epoxy coated magnets?

[porpoiseaquatics]

Well like many of you, I'm tired of dealing with suction cups that no longer work. As I convert to newer pumps, they will have magnets or I won't buy them but in the meantime, I have a couple still on suction cups that I'd like to do a DIY conversion on (MJ's mostly). Anybody got any suggestions on where to purchase epoxy coated magnets that would work for this application?

Modded MJ's or regular?

If modded, mag floats or the Petco equivalent work fine.

If unmodded, I think a pair of the BRS magnets might do the trick.

Well not modded unless a rotating deflector counts as modded. I looked on BRS and couldn't find ANY magnets at all.

How big is the tank? I used a pair of these to hold a Subcurrent Surface Skimming filter up in the corner of a 10g and I was afraid I was going to break the tank trying to get them off for cleaning.

I did find those but they way BRS has them represented, I thought they were probably very small. My tank is a 92 corner so I don't have think glass which presents the opposite issue....will they stick?
