Have a reef breeders 24" over my reefer 250. Love the light but hate the side mounts. Tank has a screen top with two notches for mounts on the back. The reef breeders mount they sell is two big to fit where the overflow is. Looking at possibly two HMS mounts and make it work. Anyone else use any other mounts and make them work? I looked at the mounts that attach to the back of the stand but dont have room to get back there to do that. Looking for suggestions!

I had these custom made.
Originally I was going to use these clamps from Current Orbit.
But I didn't have the room either. So I mounted them to the wall with good size spreaders inside the wall. I attached them while still using the Photon legs, marked the wall for holes, removed the new mounts and drilled.
I cut the top of the legs off and used them to mount the fixture to the arms. I ended up getting 2' long bolts so the fixture hangs away from the mounting arms and allows for the fans to have better flow. You can see below, the back fixture has the 2 outboard fans blocked.
