Any universal LED light stands or hangers?

[SueAndHerZoo]

I'm setting up a 72 gallon bowfront (48" wide) and I have a bunch of LED units from being in the hobby for 10 years, but no 48"ers. I want to use one of my 24" inch ones, and maybe one smaller one, but I can't hang them in the spot where the tank is. Anyone know of clamps or hangers or adjustable "legs" for various LED units that I can use? It's going to be a seahorse tank so I really don't want a glass top on it (tank will get too warm). I've been searching various websites for some clever way to hang or mount these units to the actual tank, but I'm not sure that exists. Plus, the units are so heavy, I'm not sure the rim of the tank can handle that kind of weight.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Let’s see a picture of tank/wall/ceiling.

I’d suggest using brackets off the wall, hang the lights from a hanging cable. Maybe do like 2 or 3 brackets with some kind of decorative pipe across the brackets.

Think sliding door curtain/curtain rod.

I was hoping not to put so many holes in the wall, but I may have no choice. My husband offered to put back a narrow shelf that was above the tank that I could hang lights off of, but I want to keep the tank far enough away from the back wall so I can get my hands and equipment back there so that means the lights would be shining down on the space BEHIND the tank rather than in the tank. Or maybe I can have him mount some brackets sticking out from the shelf?

No legs or stands or clamps that I can attach to the stand or the rim of the tank, huh?

You could mount it off the shelf or get a deeper shelf.
I guess the legs or mounts would depend on the lights.

What about the Aquatic Life hangars:

or the Cadlights hangars:

Both versions attach to the back of the stand.

Wow.... had I seen that four hours ago I may very well have purchased that, but instead I broke down and bought two of these: Amazon product ASIN B07GKHKXHZ
I'm not sure how well those will work, but for the price it's worth trying, and even if I don't keep them on this tank, they'll be good to have around for others. This is a seahorse tank and they really don't care much about the quality or PAR of the lights so this could work out. If not, I'll definitely look into that item you posted. That's really a perfect solution for someone who doesn't want to hang from their wall or ceiling! Thanks for finding that!
