How did you mount this kessils to 8020? Do you have a different thread for the light build? I am just beginning to design something. I already have kessils with stand mount but I am thinking of adding 2 AI blades to supplement kessils and mount all of them on a rectangle T slot frame and hang it from roof.
I used these below to mount them to the 80/20. Sorry, other than what I posted above in this thread there is no additional thread for the lights, but happy to try an answer questions. The difficult ones I will defer you to the master sensei @Reefer Reboot who made the whole design

Thank you so much. Do you have a closeup picture of it mounted to the T slot? Or was it as simple as sliding a nut into the slot and screw the red arrow part?

I don't know what coral is this. Picked it up at LFS a long time ago. Doing great in the new tank though! Looks like an acan but it's much bigger. Anyone know?

:beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes: You know me my friend, I'm always open for anything other that GSP! (unless it's the true branching type.);):grinning-squinting-face: But what can I do for you?
Just stop by. Can frag some others if you want.
What can you do for me? Take some of the GSP I listed for free here and no one wanted :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

She is so fast and constantly on the move I can rarely take good pictures of my cleaner wrasse. Not sure why people say they don't live long in our reef tanks, this one is almost 5 years going now. Amazing fish.
