Where can I find these? I looked on the site, but I'm not seeing them.

No pics of the 24" or 36" until the next week. We will post on R2R when available. Thanks for the comment!

Very smart product, I will buy this new product.

@AquaticLifeProducts
Any news on availability on the 48" , I am currently assembling a new tank and hope to have water in a week.

Awesome! Got my eye on the 36" fixture, I already have a pair of kessils just waiting to go in it

The fixture at the show was a 36" unit and it was supported by the Halo arms. It did work but I do not like that much weight on the aquarium glass. It would be better to use a mount that attached to the stands to support the weight.

It would be great if you could make/design a matching mount that attaches to the stand. DIY mounts work to a certain degree but I don't have the skills to make them look sleek or the tools/skills to make them have adjustable heights.

That is the only thing holding me back on jumping on one.

We are still on track for an October launch. Should be closer to the middle of October.

That's perfect there are two mounts for the 36" included with the kit.

Have you ever seen the universal mounts we sold a few years back for the T5 fixtures? Is that what you would be looking to use?

I was told that the AP700 has top screw mounts and it will fit inside the 7.25" opening in top. So it should have no problem fitting.

Yep, looking for something just like that but are those screw plates adjustable? Might be a bit too tall for my stand if those plates are soldered.

Also do those arms have extra slots/holes at the top to move the lights forwards and backwards to adjust to our tanks width?

If these are pretty versatile arms, sign me up for a fixture + arms. I've been thinking about hybridizing for a long time!

Let me see if I can find the instructions for the arms we stopped selling them, but I could start again if people will use them for the Hybrid.

The manual is still on our site. Let me know where I can send an email copy.

 

[Kayvon]

Is there a way we could get just the mounting arms?

Sent you a PM.

Thanks!

Sorry, which are you referencing the HALO arms or the Universal listed above?

 

[Kayvon]

The first post shows the hybrid mounting system hung by some mounting arms. Are those going to be the same as the universal mounting arms?

 

[AquaticLifeProducts]

Those are our HALO mounting arms that I used at the show. They only attach to the frame of an aquarium and I would not feel comfortable long term to use them to support the T5 HO Hybrid fixture. The weight I think is too much for the glass.

 

[Kayvon]

Would the old universal mounts be a better option since it is attached to the stand? I know those are discontinued not, but I've managed to find one.
