Help choosing lights Giesemann aurora vs Radion

I ordered the bracket from 8020.net. On this tank it's attached to the stand. I've got the same brackets on another tank which I built a rack out of 2x4s that the vertical brackets sit in and just slide behind the stand.

Jimbo662 I searched 8020.net and could not find the bracket. Can you share the part #? Those brackets look nice.

Jimbo662, one last question - how did you attach the vertical brackets to the stand on this one? This looks surely sturdier than the mounting gear sold commercially for the AL hybrid fixture!

I drilled two holes in the back of the stand for each vertical support. That's where the T bolts go. The one thing you need to check is to see if the top of the stand extends beyond the back side of the stand or if it's flush. On my first stand it extended out so I had to take two washers and put on the outside of the stand so the vertical support was perfectly perpendicular. Otherwise it'll end up at a slight angle.
