I know you are going for a different design but I just wanted to point it out for others looking to build something similar.

Hi Snaz, The mounts will be attached fixture using ¼-20 bolts that will go all the way though the mount and the fixture. I was thinking that the opposing edge would be on the other side of the tank preventing lateral movement, but I’ll give it a second , third, and fourth look. Would hate to have it fall….thanks
