I just purchased a set of d120's online, and need a way to hang the darned things. I have a metal snand for my tank, so drilling brackets to it is not going to happen either, (although i could clamp them if needed). Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. (Tank is a standard sized 90 gallon, and 2 fixtures).

There is several ways to hang these but I need some more specs on the lights, pics & measurements.

Lights arrived today! Dimensions are 8 3/8" x 15 3/4", and 6 1/2 pounds. Wife has given ceiling mounting approval also... Help a noob out? :)

A pic of the light would be very helpful as well.

Here's a link to the eBay auction. I was pleasantly surprised when DHL only asked for $20 when it arrived... That's a first!

Bump? The eBay link was only posted because it had numerous pics of the fixture and my image uploading skills are non-existent.
