Is the glass strong enough to hold a light?

I have a Top Fin 10gal and I was wondering if the glass was strong enough to attach an Aquaknight light to the glass on the back.

I personally would not. Lay it on glass due to heat but more so , moisture
Lay the ends of the light on a 1”x2” furring strip to elevate it a little

My only concern is the fact that the tank is longer and I’m worried that it needs to be more elevated, but once it comes in I’ll check it out placing it where you recommend and see how it looks.
