72" LED fixture for a 125 gallon tank

Has anyone come across a 72" LED fixture? I'm thinking about replacing my current CF fixture. I'm not interested in DIY and I don't want to have to get two or three separate fixtures that add up to 72". I basically want an LED fixture that looks similar to my CF fixture from the outside and has legs that will prop it onto the sides of the tank. I use glass tops and I do not have a canopy. Thanks!

Not pretty, but the AI units have mounting rails with legs.

Thanks, Anemonebuff. I'll check it out!

Any other ideas on fixtures? What have those of you with 72" long tanks done for LED lights?

I doubt there's any LED fixture out there that's 72" long. The longest one I've seen is just over 3-4' only, like the Vertex Lumina.

Other LED comes in modules like AI Sol, or each fixture covering 2-3'.

I'm using 2 LED fixtures on my 40", it mounts on my rimless tank with rails.

Vertex does make one, but it's quite expensive.
