Leg Mod for coralife aqualight pro
 
I have a 48" coralife aqualight pro (2 x 150w HQI, 2x96w pc and led lights) The legs that come with it are decent however they do not flip up which means lifiting the heavy fixture off the tank everytime I want to do some maintennance. Any ideas for legs that will allow me to flip the light up and not have to remove the whole fixture everytime I want to get my hands in the tank? I saw coralife adjustable mounting legs but apparently they dont work on the pro series.... please help

Are you sure as it says for aqua lights?

The Aqualight Pros are pretty heavy. I would'nt trust that product. The way it's designed it looks like it would put too much stress on where it mounts on the tank due to the heavy fixture. Plus on one of the sites it says it is discontinued. It sure is a pain in the butt having to take the fixture off especially with the four cords hanging off the back of it.

exactly.. four cords over four feet wide and its awkward to lift.... Those legs will not work as I read some reviews on other site saying they will not work with the aqualight pro series... anything else? Do you guys just remove your fixtures as well?

I understand as I used to have a six footer. I sold it to much hassle to move all the time. You could suspended it and put pulleys in the line so you can move it up an down?
