Mounting of the Profilux

[reefkeeps]

Any great mounting ideas? I'm think of a vertical mount under my cabinet but wondered if you folks have come some examples of other creative options...

Thanks,

Chris

anywhere that is dry and away from salt water "close" humid enviroment.

My biggest advise is either mount outside the sump area or on a well ventilated seperate shelf like this (my tank)

Here is mine, in the cabinet under the tank - I have no sump.

That's a great look, I can't see any hardware and I like that. What are you actually using to hold it to the top of the cabinet? (I also like the stacked look with the doser)

 

[CDW]

Actually, I wanted the Profilux and doser more to the front, so I moved it. Currently it is only resting on a piece of acrylic which rest on cable tie connecters screwed to the sides.

Here is mine in the old setup. The new mounting puts it 2 feet away from the sump.

Looks good, did you make that acrylic shelf?

 

[Rotknee]

Thanks...technically...no I did not build it. I got the idea from shaggss and redesigned it to fit on the left side of my cabinet. I have a local acrylic guy who did the rest.

Perfect, now I just need to find some one to make it! Thanks for the help!

Mike,
Will this work for dosers too?

 

[reefkeeps]

Perfect....dare I ask...how much?

 

[AQD_ottawa]

not dont the maths yet but not expensive the euro retail is around 15euros take into account shipping costs to us

The best idea's are so simple! This will help a lot of people with limited space!

 

[reefkeeps]
