I hope you can help me!
I want to use a certain type of magnet in my tank. It's going to be in there more-or-less permanently. I suppose I could coat it with epoxy, but I'm still curious about the effects. I have these rare earth magnets, they are Neodymium -Iron-Boron magnets with either a nickel or gold plating. Any idea how these coatings would react to saltwater? What about the Neodymium itself?
I'm gonna stick some in a jar of tank water for a test right away.
Thanks.
