How to mount MH Pendant

[impreza]

Someone on ReefCentral suggested a lantern holder, that may be another option.

this was my old PVC light rack before I built my canopy...thought it might give some ideas...ran all the wiring inside the piping for a cleaner look...

the black part is actually a speaker stand.

I think I am leaning towards soemthing like this. Any other pics of the side? How did you anchor it so it doesn't tip?

Yeah if you wouldn't mind posting some specifics on the PVC idea... it looks neat (as in clean..) but I am questioning the sturdiness as well... and also I'd need to go buy a pendant to do it that way haha

I was using 2 Hagan 6' light strips front and back of the tank to run actinics, then I built legs (T in the middle with both sides extending front to back between the Hagan striplights) then the same idea in the middle of the tank on top of the brace...never had stability problems with it.
