Default Mounting/Hanging Tek Lights

Good Evening Everybody,

I recently purchased the 24" Tek light fixture for my tank. Now I'm throwing around a couple of different ideas on how to have them light my tank. By this I mean, obviously or so everyone knows.....they will only mount to a tank with the bracket system, if the tank is the same size as the lighting system. My question for eveyone is could you help me throw around a couple of ideas on how to do this?? One rule while helping.... if anyone decides to lend a helping hand....is that I cannot hang them from the ceiling due to a stucco finish on it(it would be rather messy upon setup) A couple of my ideas are;

-silicon glass pieces to the top of the tank on either side, in order for the bracket system to work. pros/cons??

-have some "L" brackets made to mount on the wall behind the tank and suspend the light with the hanging kit. pros/cons??

How about anyone else's ideas? Pictures on how others have done this too?? Also, many thanks to those who can give me some insight on getting this done. The sooner they're mounted, the better the tanks feels about it.

Thanks Again,
Barrett
