OK, So I recently picked up 3 Kessil A360WE & now have to figure out how to mount them above the tank. Wife says absolutely not to hanging them so I thought I might try to come up with an aluminum solution that will mount to the Current Orbit light hangers that I have now. Any ideas with pics would be appreciated. I was thinking a 1/2"x1" by 60" bar & drill holes. This would save me about $200 not having to buy their hangers.
 
Ya.im afraid I’m with your wife on this one..... hanging them is ugly as all hell. I have a A350W and I was forced to buy the Gooseneck.
 
Yep, I had to glue the orbit marine light mounts to my tank because of it being acrylic & I the mounting blocks didn't match up because of my overflow setup so I know their not going anywhere unless I cut them off so I'm thinking the bar option unless I get a better idea from someone here.
 
Found what i needed. I just used the Kessil A700 mounting bar, works great but I need to lower them by about 2"
