Looks clean! I have very high, vaulted ceilings above the tank so nearly impossible x.x my plan was to clamp on back but with a eurobrace.... it's sketchy. Now I'm diving into 8020 builds with the stand or wall behind, I'm lost haha

I have seen some interesting wall mounted light rails using TV mounts. Allows you to shift the lights out of the way for tank access.

Easiest would be a bracket system bolted into the wall studs behind the tank. Alternate might be to bolt brackets to the stand uprights in the back that are long enough and sturdy enough not to bend with the weight of the light.

Depending on how wide the eurobrace is you could have Stoney print you some spacers that fill the space below them to provide a larger flat space for the bracket footings to hold on to.

How high of a ceiling are we talking about.

14 foot vaulted ceiling =/

Best practice is to also cut acros off the plug above the base a little. Or at least give it a good scrub at the base, if you don’t cut it.

Good morning all you beautiful people! Like @Thuan I did a 20%(20g) WC last night in preparation for the corals arriving today. Says before noon, we'll see if that happens lol.

Will be nice getting the new torch rock going. Been missing the torches since we sold them.

Told hubby. He said it's not impossible. Don't know what lights you got. You can build a frame above the tank. Hubby made frame for the 2 quanta out if aluminum bars and fit kessils in middle

I'm gonna look again after work, see if I can get up there with a ladder haha

Right now, my plan is 2 reefi unos with a 32 inch photon in the middle. I believe thay will be enough par to get started and will add orpheks as colonies grow.

Or I can just do 4 reefis straight across idk
The 30 inches wide makes it challenging
