Hey Everyone, just wanted to get some ideas. I've got a new tank being built. Unfortunately it's eurobraced. I would like to light it with two xr30s (since I've already got one) but the RMS mounts won't work with the eurobracing. I thought it would be cool to do something like reefdudes did for his peninsula tank (), but looking into it I'm not sure I've got the engineering prowess to do so. Due to the height of my ceiling, and the fact that I rent, hanging options are off the table as well. My initial thoughts are to get the AI HMS kit and just retrofit it since it's feet would just sit on the edge of my tank regardless of the eurobracing (see below.) What other suggestions might y'all have?
Thanks in advance.

I did something similar

My 8020 is attached to a board so I can remove it easily if needed. Plus by making the longest piece 48" I saved some money on shipping. Anything longer and shipped jumped up.
