AI Sol Mounting Rack

Is it an option to lag a nicely finished piece of hard wood onto the wall behind the tank and extend an aluminum frame off of it hang your lights from? The wall mounted wood piece could match any other trim in that area of the house and with it spanning as long as you need you would be sure to hit a few wall studs to make it secure.

That may be an option, I'm just worried that it may have to extend too far. As for studs, I'm not sure there are any in the wall...don't ask

Time to move into a new house that suites the tank!

Tank isn't moving until I shut it down

A wall with no studs is a giant window or a concrete wall. Maybe Denny's soon to be invented lights are the best option.....

The wall is about 3 feet think. I think it contains a hidden fireplace. I have removed entire sheets of drywall in other parts of the house, a stud only at each end of the wall.. Pretty sure it was an add-on by a drunk homeowner -lol

Denny's option would cause too much evaporation, which is why I went to LED to begin with.
Doug has a nice wooden rack that he made for Radions, I might be able to do something with that idea..
