When I got my red sea reefer, i wanted a refugium in there. However, there was no place to put the light. I can't keep it on the ceiling of the cabinet other wise algae will grow everywhere in the sump. I can't hang it from the rim to the filter sock holder because it gets in the way of the reservoir.

So I made a hanger out of a metal clothing hanger and added some rubber to the parts that will touch the glass. I also made a small anchor on the left so it wouldnt move.

Now it is flush and doesn't get in the way.
