Dreichler Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 So i bought an AI Hdra 26 with the controller for my JBJ 28 reef tank, so i can pretty much grow anything now (my filtration is perfect as well). So whats the best way to mount it, IM NOT HANGING IT, i need a moutning kit thats practical for the jbj 28 with the stand and a wall right behind it, i can't be drilling into the tank, only drilling i can do is into a wall maybe. PLEASE HELP Link to comment

PLEASE HELP Why not get the AI rail kit? You can always DIY a conduit mount as well. A few people have even retrofitted a Ecotech RMS mount to mount them. Link to comment

PLEASE HELPYou could make a hanging fixture like mine. It cost about 10 bucks for wood (I used a 1"x2" piece of oak) and a couple brackets, plus the cost of the hanging kit. It mounts to the back of my stand. If you dont want to or cant, you could always make the back piece short and attach it to your wall. Link to comment

NanoGeek Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Wow nanogeek really like that mount! If I ever get an ATI Powermodule thats what illl do Thanks! It was super easy to make. The front T piece is just held together with a steel T bracket, and the 90 degree was just a 6 inch shelf bracket on the inside. Then 2 long screws to reinforce it, one through the front, and one from the top down into the back piece. And of course some black spray paint I had sitting around the garage. Link to comment
