LED Lights

[dradnan04]

Hello. I just bought a new Innovative Marine EXT 240 saltwater aquarium to replace old Red Sea. I did not realize that the new aquarium is eurobraced and now I can not mount my old Red Sea LED lights to the new aquarium. Wall mount is not an option as the wall behind the aquarium is covered with decorative PVC panels . Hanging the lights from the ceiling is not an option also as the ceiling is 23 feet high. Any advice on what type of LED lights I can get which can be mounted on this aquarium ??

Not sure this idea will work for you or not, but I had a hard time getting my lights mounted so I made wooden brackets that come up from the back of the stand and my lights clamped to that.
From the front it looks like the lights are mounted to the rear wall of the tank, but they actually clamp into the wooden bracket just behind the tank wall.

Thanks much for your reply

There must be a way to make it work. I feel like people come up with all kinds of ways, especially with 3D printing making it possible to print custom adapters.

But I am currently setting up Hydros Edge lights with the multi-light mount kit, which is compatible with a Euro-brace. (It haven't actually attached them yet, but I'm pretty sure it'll work!)
