Hey guys I need some ideas on how to hang my leds over my 6' tank. The problem is that there isn't a stud in the ceiling at the spot where the led lights have to hang. I have two lights hanging on studs but the 3rd light doesn't have a stud at its location. Any ideas?
Thanks
 
Use a Sheet rock Molly Bolt witch will support the weight of the LED with out a issue
 
I went to ikea and found a shelf a little over 6 feet hung it over the tank and hung the lights from the mounting brackets of the shelf. the brackets where unnecessary since the shelf was free floating but i bought them specifically for the lights, they had hooks at the end for design and i thought that would be good. turned out good for me.
Seeing all the other ideas now, i probably would have done the bent conduit from home depot and painted it black.
