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.

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
