i had 6 of those mounts on my 180, so i hope i dont have some weird metal issue in the tank.

Are you still running the SB reef leds? I have thought about switching from 3 400watt halides to 6 of the 16" sb basic units.

That’s crazy they used metal for that. Ocean Revive bars are aluminum and tank mounts are plastic. Chris had same issue and it was impacting his corals. Not sure what light brand it was but looked same so may have been SB

i actually just switched, i still have them if you are interested, i would suggest not using their supports and just mounting them with some wire. send me a om if youd like.

yeah i switched to hanging two of the lights and using the aluminum mount on one of the hard to get to lights.

They switched to aluminum over a year ago
