![]() I built a canopy then screwed my pendants to it.
Realize that wasn't much help but for height, when building my canopy I wanted to keep it low. I contact a couple of companies for height and from Hamilton for their Reefstar pendants they recommended 8" above water, from PFO and their mini-pendants they said 5 ". I had indicated was planning 250W DE pendants. |

![]() I hung my lights in such a way as they could slide out of the way, but also be raised straight upward.
In practice, I move them straight up all the time....and only slide them out of the way when I'm changing bulbs. The reason is that when I want to work on the tank, having the lights overhead helps me see what I'm doing. I think I also get a nice suntan on my back at the same time!

![]() We hung ours in such a way that it can be slide about a foot frontwards or backwards and also a foot side to side. Its on a H bar made out of pipe and eye hooks. Its simple and works really well.
