I am wanting to upgrade my lighting so I can start growing coral. Reading through several posts here I found that a black box will give me the best bang for my buck.

I am reviewing several of the 165w lights on amazon and am wondering if there are any arm mounts for these black boxes? (ones that attach to the back of the tank)

I am unable to hang the light from the ceiling (too high) and just think an arm mount would look better.

Anybody seen anything or have any ideas?
 
I just saw an aquarium store use TV mounts. They hung the lights from something similar to these. Wish I would have taken a picture.

PERLESMITH Full Motion TV Wall Mount for Most 10-30 Inch TVs & Monitors - Wall Mount TV Bracket with Swivel & Extends 17”- TV Mount fits LED, LCD, OLED Flat Screen TVs up to 44lbs Max VESA 100X100 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C5N6W24/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_9.XXCbVWGVF96
 
I like that idea

Especially for hanging lights that I want to push out of the way

Just take that X bracket off and mount to the arm

Or maybe bolt to 8020
 
I have two vipar spectra lights and am seriously contemplating the tv mounts. Please post pics of whatever you decide to use!
 
I will have to give this into the shot, ill order both and see what I can come up with.

I dont have a DIY bone in my body lol
