I have the same problem on one of my nano tanks.....and I used a dremel to cut the plastic for the skimmer tube to sit straight up and down.....Its a pretty easy thing to do.......As far as the light legs interferring with the L ledge, most lights that I have seen sit on the top of the aquarium and dont actually wrap around the edges.

You shouldnt have a proplem with most lights. I know the coralife legs sit on top of the plastic trim and have plastic bolts that tighten to the glass just under the trim.

Thanks for your shed of hope guys! I feel a bit better knowing my fish can see the light! My fish will have to praise the Reef God!

I still think I am going to look around for other skimmers before I start to drill anything yet. The one I bought was not expensive.. I was told it would do the trick on my tank being a 30g.. it is a Rio Nano.. actually is a cut the plastic part on the skimmer intake tube that goes on the tank.. I would be fine.. I think I will attempt that before slicing my tank.. $40 skimmer $$$ plus tank.. ah I can live if the skimmer goes lol.

Have any of you been out to Ocean Aquatics.. they have some great looking T-5 I may be interested in in regards to lighting.
