Need some advice. I’m getting a new 48” euro braced tank. My external overflow is left of the center brace. What are my options for a euro braced tank mounting lights ? Planning on 2 lights.
Wife is open to hanging kit but ceiling is > 10 feet.
Any suggestions or pictures.
 
The wall TV mount was pretty popular when leds came out.
Some were very clean and handy.

What are you figuring to use?
 
ive used tv wall mounts and most recently 80/20. never been a fan of tank mounts or ceiling
cables as I think the power cords look awkward. just my 2 cents

I used to hate the thought of ceiling mounting a light fixture.
I always thought the wire would be ugly.
But then I gave it a try once and I can't imagine not doing a ceiling mount again.
I really don't see it.
