Need some help

[fastrd400]

I am about to shut down my system in favor of a new one. I am looking at the Red Sea Reefer 350. My issue is, lighting. I am going to move away from the Radion Pros that I currently have and go back to T5. The issue I am having is finding a good quality fixture that will sit on the tank as I do not have the option to hang a fixture. I like the ATI Sunpower, but no legs on it, or any offered from the manufacturer. Also, been out of the skimmer game for a while as my current skimmer has been running like a beast in my sump, so now I find myself looking for something that will work In a chamber that is 16.5x10. Any advice would be appreciated.

Why not keep your radio s and do a t5 hybrid fixture. Get the best of both worlds

Can you drill into the stand and add mounting posts? What is restricting you from hanging?

Hi Wade

The ATI is very similar to Tek fixtures; maybe just ask around for a set of legs and try to fit it to the ATI

I am renting, so I really no not want to drill into the landlords open beam ceiling.

How about Radion RMS mount and Extended Rails. From that, you can hang your fixture. Just buy #1 and #2 from the attached picture.

I won’t be running the Radions, I will be moving back to T5.

I understand, but you can hang your T5 using the radion rail system.

Ahhhh, had not thought of that, thanks.

Or just make one. Easy to bend conduit and screw it to the back of the tank.

Hey, what's up Daniel. I thought about making something, but do not have the extra time, and do not want an "œindustrial" look to it, you've met my wife, she ain't going for that, lol.

I have a set of Tek legs if you want for $25
