Hi All,
i am trying to put together my radion mounting before they arrive.
I am trying to mount it very similar to the setup they have on their web site (which was done by Dennis).
I had a few questions though
1) what is the distance between the centers of the holes on the short side. their website says 7 inches wide..but i wanted to know the exact distance between it.
2) i would also like to know the distance from the hole to nearest edge.
3) my tank is 35x35x24 (cubish 130g) and if i kept it between 8-10 inches of the water surface...what distance would you recomend i keep between the ends of the 2 fixtures.
4) also should i drill a hole wide enough to make the aluminum bar sit flat against the radion or is it ok to make it smallers and rest on the little bump outs they have.
5) what size hole to drill for it to be able to rest on the little bump outs.
6) what kind of screws do i need. I heard M5..anything more specific. I plan to get the materials at home depot.
7) ive never cut aluminum...and i was thinking of going with a 1/4 inch bar...
8) lastly what kind of drill bit would i need.
thx!!
