Diana, from what others posted seems you have to make sure you attach to a stud in the wall. I never touched my light so no idea why it took a little over a year for it give way. My guess is the condo gets damp during the winter where I could see condensation forming on the ceiling. Maybe that...

Mark, appreciate that but let me see how this works for a few days. Plus a few other generous people offered spare lights they have. No need to take yours down.

For a broken led strip still pretty bright all by itself.

Last pic is blue only.

Best I could under the circumstances. Unfortunately, the led strip light is broke as only a few bulbs work. The 165w have at 100% for both channels. My concern is an algae problem as other light was 300W and more coverage.

This is what I used. https://www.homedepot.com/p/3-16-in-x-2-in-Zinc-Plated-Toggle-Bolt-with-Round-Head-Phillips-Drive-Screw-3-Pieces-803722/204273386

Actually mine was different. Let me find a pic and post.

The outlets are not GFCI but the power strip was. I already considered that for the office. Still missing 2 fish and Nepthea got slammed by the light so one side looks horrific. Hopefully, will recover.

After work going to MacGyver my Vipra Specter 165w light and I also have a blue/white led strip 3ft long. Hopefully will provide enough lighting.

@Sponge, Thanks for the tip. Since I am moving the tank will just patch the holes and repaint for now. I am just going to lay the 165w light on top for now.

You did mention that to me before. However, the fixture is 30" long and still just as wide as the single and couldn't find a TV mount to fit. So I went this route.

@Roca1357, I had it mounted with steel plant brackets and toggle bolts; 2 per bracket. Each bolt supposed to hold 80lbs so thought that would work. I couldn't catch a beam, to far out. Thanks for the offer but I have 1 spare I can use 165w, VipraSpectre. Also, now that 3 things happened I should...

I sit hear at 4am and wonder if it's worth all the aggregation and heartache anymore. I heard a loud gurgling noise and then like a draw or something closed. I assumed wife couldn't sleep and was watching something in her laptop. Just to loud and was done. I roll over and she is sound asleep; I...

I I know a brunette.....LOL

Might as well take both.

I will give it a shot. Let me know about payment.

I only dose calcium and alk weekly. Looking automate maybe.

Interested but never used a doser before. Is this everything or do I need extra items?

Thank you to all that participated.
