![]() I was thinking the same as Mr Alberta as I was reading this.A shelf extending out from the wall,and maybe moving the tank out a bit and hanging the skimmer on the end closest to the wall.Also if you get energetic,a nice DIY stand and canopy would look great

![]() Pauli,
I'm also thinking a little DIY would be best. Have you seen the Hagen GLO T5(HO) displays in stores...I think most Total Pet stores and many Petland store carry these lights. They often show how they could be mounted above a tank via two square metal rods that come up the back of the tank and curve over the tank leaving 2 hooks from which the light can be hung. I could try to draw it but I think that would be a mistake...lol. It is very clean looking and it would nicely hold two pendant MH lights.

![]() So I did a google search, and the only thing I could find of the Hagen T5's is a system of two "clamps" (for lack of a better word) that attach to the side of the tank, and the T5's clip into those... Very clean looking. Thanks for the ideas!

![]() Look into the Tek Light fixtures w/ mounting legs (or you can come over for a first hand look if you like). I'm sure you can rig up something similar that will work on your Hamiltons.
