I need ideas/tips/help on how to mount my ai sol on my 24x24x12 shallow rimless cube. I was thinking conduit pipe as i already have some but would like to know how to effectively attach the fixture

Any input would be apperciated.
 
you could bend conduit into a 90. I would use at least 3/4 emt. But if you could use ridged that would be better. Simply drill a small hole through the pipe to run the cable through it. You can use conduit straps or mini's to attatch it to the back of the stand.
 
This is what I did. I did this before the tank was filled because I had to drill holes into the metal pipe and screw into the back of the stand. Maybe you can do this off the side if you dont mine the look?

Tank is currently empty. I have bent two 1/2" conduit pipe to 90degrees. How do I attach the single AI sol to the pipe. I don't want to use cables or the AI hanging kit. Not sure how or what screws/hardware to use to accomplish this.

I prefer to just one pipe when attaching if possible.
 
You can probably find long enough screws that will go through the conduit and screw directly into the top of the fixture using the holes for the rack.

I personally took the legs off the standard AI rack and hung it from the ceiling.
 
Google cad light tree I you want to replace it or buy longer screws I bought mine at the local hardware store.

What others are saying. You will need to drill two holes in the conduit and then find go to a hardware store and get screws that fit the AI threading.
