How to hang xr15?

[geckoejon]

Hello,

What has everyone used to hang multiple xr15’s from the ceiling?

Any frame or something that I can use to hang 3 all at the same time that looks nice & neat?

I just painted and mounted a decorative wood strip across the ceiling joists and hung them from there. Looks very clean. Cords ran down the wall behind the tank hidden by painted (to match the wall) plastic strips.

I used 3/4 inch emt conduit. Just bend it to 90 degrees and cut it to length. Then I mounted it to the stand with pipe brackets. Pretty simple and cost me 25 bucks. Also just buy a conduit bender and then return it the next day.

I hung 2 very fixtures using 2 pieces of angle iron and the ceiling cables.
The XR15's are very light weight fixtures so maybe aluminum angle might work.

Set the 3 fixtures out on a table with the spacing you want and set the hanging material ( iron or aluminum ) across the tops of them to mark the holes.
Once they are all attached figure out the hanging cable ( probably exactly between the fixtures) . Using a pair of hanging cable kits, attach to the ceiling.
