So I purchased a new Hydra 26 HD (white) today online, I still need to find a mount , my thinking is to first find the best mount (?) and then to prime and paint (3-4 coats) it white to match both the Hydra and the background behind the tank which is in a corner and very bright white
Anyone ever heard of anyone doing this?
I also believe it might give a cool effect of the light almost floating above the tank as it blends in with the mount and the walls in my fish cave. I assume Ill probably have to paint or tape the exposed parts of the what I assume is a black cord. Anyone ? Ideas? Thoughts? I think its a little weird they make the light in white but not a white mount, but I'll figure a work around.
Anyone know anything about powder coating ?
Thanks in advance
Chi

Most of the stock mounts have pretty bad reviews. I just made mine from 3/4 inch PVC. It may not be as nice as a normal mount but I dont mind it.
