An idea I saw (I can't remember where) for hanging heatsinks is run them on pocket door track. That way when you have to work in your tank you can just push them back on the rail and they're not hanging in your way. Just a though if you hadn't seen it done.
No problem copying pics ... I love to inspire lol.

I thought about actually doing a thread dedicated to just the stand and canopy ... because I have 10 times as many build pics as I showed here. Most people are interested in the tank and the livestock, so I focus on those when sharing on the forums.

As for the pocket door rail, thats a stellar idea. I am fortunate enough to have a rather tall canopy, and my heat sinks hung high enough that they have never been in the way while working in the tank. My hanging set up is very caveman ... but it does the trick and is hidden inside of my canopy.
