YHSublime December 9, 2014 Share December 9, 2014 I would screw eyehooks into the floor joists / roof truss that are above the tank. No reason to have it fall in the tank. I think we found out they are not waterproof...right Isaac Agreed, but if you really want to learn your way around the fixture, break it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuffyGeos December 10, 2014 Share December 10, 2014 So how did you end up hanging the fixture? I like the way your reorganization of the rock went, nice growth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08can-am December 10, 2014 Author Share December 10, 2014 I cut the top of the canopy and its resting on there. I feel better about that than trying to hang in canopy. Its about 10-11" off the water this way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epleeds December 11, 2014 Share December 11, 2014 nice looking tank. Have you thought of cutting the whole in the tank a little wider and then hanging the light from the ceiling and just having it inside the canopy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with your light resting on the canopy, how are you getting into the tank for maintainence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08can-am December 23, 2014 Author Share December 23, 2014 Love this 2nd picture! So with your light resting on the canopy, how are you getting into the tank for maintainence? The canopy flips open from the front so its wide open inside. You have a bar top tank?Yes our kitchen and living room is divided by a oversized counter (bar) so we had a glass tank built to fit there. 6' x 10" x 10". I thought i had a thread on here for that tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
