Radion Clamp Mount
Good morning! Finally getting my tank running with a radion pro Looking at mounts the nicest one shows up in a few places, however I can't find it for sale. Is this available for purchase?
thanks! see attached picture Innovate Marine says the clamps are available from ecotech: http://youtu.be/TDTNffvjRQ0 Slightly different mount at ecotech booth:

I saw these a couple weeks back, I don't believe they're currently selling them.

I saw those and they looked different. understanding there are material, manufacturing costs, overhead & profit to be made, $1500 seems steep

The clamps pictured [above] from MACNA as well as the ones in the Innovative Marine product video were in fact custom made for trade show / publication purposes.
From what I've heard, My Reef Creations does in fact made a custom bracket (not pictured) for a multiple light installation- being solid acrylic, these mounts don't come cheap. Know that while there are various obstacles in making an aquarium mounting solution for the Radion fixtures, your requests and suggestions haven't fallen on deaf ears!

Thanks. I made a mount for my new tank, glad to hear the folks at ecotech are looking at options!

^Comments about zombie threads aside, the RMS mounting is basically a more adjustable version of this, and was released the year after this thread ended.
I made a couple aluminum ones for people back in 2013 or so, and there were the expensive (but nice) acrylic ones above. I'm sure if you were willing to pay what those cost it wouldn't be hard to get IM or even an acrylic fab place to make another, but the RMS is much cheaper and readily available. |

What about an RMS mount with a rail going the long way, or do you really want two arms coming off of the back? Even with two off the back it wouldn't be hard to rig a longer rail across them.
