Aquarium Advice Freak
I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I need some advice on modifying a MH hood that I am getting.
I bought the Coralife 48" MH and PC hood. It is 15" wide and my tank is only 12.75" wide (72G bowfront). I must have measured wrong or something, but that's in the past now. So the feet that come with it are not going fit because they extend from the end of the fixture.
I can not hang the fixture because of the way my condo is set up. It is a loft and the tank is not in a good place for hanging things above it. So I need to do some sort of modification to either the fixture or the tank. Any suggestions?
The only suggestion I had so far was to use some hard plastic and epoxy it to the back of the tank, extending it 3" so that the back legs of the light can rest on them.
Please help with any other suggestions. TIA
