Pretty  cool, seems like something you could duplicate DIY by embedding magnets into DIY foam rocks as well.

The ones at or above the water line look somewhat natural.

The ones in the middle of the back of the tank just look silly. Perhaps with a better background they wouldn't look so out of place.

STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE LOL..........DIY this one. I think if the background was black, It would look like a lot better. Maybe like the black from a dark cave with a few rocks visible.

Totally agree with ya Ron that one in the middle of the background just looks weird there :o The others are pretty neat. If they are priced anything like the other "rocks" I have seen from that company then I bet they are an arm and a leg cost wise. Wouldn't be that hard to make, just make a rock the same way the backgrounds are made and then hollow out a slot to put a magnet in. Would have to be a strong magnet though that's for sure.

Couldn't even watch the whole thing... as soon as I saw who the star of the video was by I stopped it. 

He's like Rush. Yeah they may have talent, but I cannot stand them.

I bet they are big bucks.

Its a neat idea that would allow you to change things up... which I tend to do every couple months or so.  (I didnt watch the video yet)

This would be a fun way to hide those magnetic algae cleaners you can get

We never leave those in the tank.
