Terrific Coralife legs. Anyone else have them?

I just bought two sets of these legs for my smaller tanks coralife fixtures and love them.
I got them from Foster and Smith.
I did have to unscrew the plastic ends of the fixtures to install them but they are well worth it.
If you have coralife and use those cheap plastic legs you need to get these instead.
They let you raise the fixture out of the way for working in the tank and cleaning under the fixture , cleaning the plastic shield etc.
Here are pictures of them installed.

Morning Dubbin, they are really cool, heavy duty to last and great to get the fixture out of the way to work in the tank.

How about a canopy

These look good, but I have an oceanic with a canopy. Are they totally inside so that you can still get the canopy on? It fits really tightly on the rim.

They would be good since I am always having to lay the lights on my couch pretty precariously. Are they expensive?

nice

They look great. I hate the $10 ripoff legs that I bought for my Coralife 30" Deluxe Lunar Light. I have to completely remove the light to open the lid on my aquarium.

Amazing, me to, the cheap plastic ones, I took them off the two fixtures that I replace these with, the metal part that goes in the light was all rusted up.
These have NO metal at all, all plastic.
They also have two things that can be slid into a slot next to the light that keeps it from falling back down, way cool idea and I love it.
Foster and Smith rocks.
