My blower keeps falling...weak suction?

[babyduke]

After I cleaned the blower, it keeps falling off. Suction cup's still soft and suction seems strong enough but several hours later, it's off the glass again. I cleaned the glass and put the suction in hot water too. It doesn't seem like I can replace the suction cup only. I couldn't pull it out. Any idea?

are you talking about a powerhead? if so what brand and model? suction cups are nortorious for not holding up and which is why alot of companies went to using magnet mounts. depending on the type of powerhead you have you can get the Sure Grip Magnetic Power Head Holder to use on it instead of the suction cups

yep need a magnet mount. Suction cups WILL fail in saltwater
