Way to mount radions

bshow24 · 03/08/2013, 01:53 AM

Ok, so I just picked up an EcoTech Radion and now comes the part of mounting.

Hanging from the ceiling will be impossible, as well as placing anything around the tank (in a corner with no room). So my only options here would be to either to have some sort of docking mounts so it goes on the aquarium or maybe (would be hard with my overflow) something that connects to the stand in the back and comes out over.

I have never had a light that would be hung, so I don't even know the terminology for this. I am just use to my fixtures having legs. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated!

How deep is your tank? I would suggest getting the aquatic life light fixture (Marine Depot)

I already purchased the Radion.

The tank is 21 inches deep, I plan on using this dimmed but the reason I am getting it is because they are simple and I will be able to use when I upgrade.

Oh, you meant the hanging fixture? Haha misread (i had knee surgery today, so I am a little loopy)
