Then I drilled a 1/2" hole on the top side of the tubing so the screwhead is inside of the tubing rather than on the top side of the tubing. I bought a AI hanging kit that was un-useable in my situation but used the two end cables that were to attach to the ends of the AI rail system and attached them to the inside sides to the tubing and hung the light with them. Cutting and assembly was about twenty minutes

Im sure its fairly easy to do however I dont have the time to spend on it and don't want to buy the tools to complete it. Plus i don't want to f it up and have my lights drop into the tank, lol.
