My fiancee bought me a couple of kessil AP9X for Christmas, I want to suspend them from the ceiling, or wall above the tank, either with a floating hood, or some sort of hanging kit. I'm upgrading from reefbreeder photon V2's, which currently have mounting brackets to the sides of the tank. Just trying to get some inspiration and get some ideas for when i set these up. Thank you! Picture of what they are going over, this is an old picture, was just getting over dinos.

I mounted 20mm 8020 channel to ceiling. Very low profile, sturdy. Then mounted j hooks to that. Then hung lights from that with hanging kit. This was for hybrid light, but I’m sure you could apply to your situation.
