haha lol i would if it would be possible to do it by myself, lol but i think i would need my dad for this part as i can't reach the ceiling, not even on a step stool

 

Try a ladder ;D Def would help to have two people, im terrible at doing "hardware" things and it was easy 8)

 

lol i'm the same, that's why i would have my dad do it

 

Buy some 1/2" metal conduit from the electrical section in Lowes or Home Depot and have them bend it for you. Then you buy some eye screws and some chain. The tek light comes with eye screws for the light and the triangle things you can hang on the conduit.

Here are a couple links:

Yes they are on planted tank websites, but its about hanging the fixture.

I have a Nova Extreme Pro hanging from some conduit right now (doesn't work out as well as a Tek fixture would though).

Ironically my Tek fixture over my planted tank has the mounting brackets. I bought the fixture after the tank and stand and I didn't want to move it to install the conduit in the back.
