Moveable, raise able lighting?

[jsweir]

Getting down to the nitty gritty on my build. Filled it with water and figured out I can't get in the tank easily with the hood on. Going to ditch the hood for now, but have the lighting suspended from above and would like to rotate it out of the way when I need to get in the tank. Anyone have any suggestions? Maybe garage door track to let me slide it back? Or some way to raise it up?

This one has movements but no raising
shows movement around 3:30.

Interesting approach

Now that is what I'm talking about

Can use a metal garden hook screwed into the wall as it can be moved over and latched

I think I'm going to try a strut trolley channel system, with 2 channels/trolleys

I've got about 3 fett behind the tank, so that way I can push them out of the way to get full access. Now I understand the challenges of a 30" deep tank
