they mount directly to the back of the stand, I mounted mine to the 2x4 frame for support. I'm not sure how much weight, I think that depends on how well you mount it, mine can support about 40lbs but thats all I checked. I used 3/8" lagg bolts to secure it to the stand along with washers

My problem is I dont have much space behind the tank because of a c2c external overflow and I need both lights to be balance over the tank. I also have a small metal stand with not much to attach to. Maybe I need to talk to Grizz about a custom job.

This idea looks like the same thing Brad did. I believe lastlight did something similar as well. When I had my stand built I had the sleves incorporated into the stand so I had the option of hangers too.

It's a great idea non the less.

same idea, just tweaked I suppose. so far I'm finding it very functional, and clean! and since mine was the prototype/original design, now Greg can probably tweak that to suit just about anyones needs

If you could post a picture of the mounting bracket maybe I can make something work.
