Where abouts do you live? I know where to get one in Australia if that helps

I am using a floor lamp with flexible side reading light neck for my par 30 bulb. It was 12$. I didn't want to spend 50-60$ on a fixture that attaches to my tank and might accident break my tank.

Hope this helps.

Do you have a link I could see?

Here is a link to a very similar lamp fixture on Amazon. This is not the one I got, but you get the idea. You could also use a floor lamp with multiple flexible heads on top if your tank is up higher. Anyways, just an idea.

Alternate for tank that sits higher

Got this at my local how depot it supports up to 60w and I'm getting a 54w par38. 6 dollars and at the pet store I work at we have a good attachment for it to sit over my tank

That works too! I already have several of those for my freshwater tanks, but no good way to attach them to my salt tank that has no lid.

I am glad you found something more reasonably priced!

That would be great if my apartment building allowed me to do that!
