If I mount this to the upper portion of one of my aquarium walls, is the lights angle adjustable at all? My idea is to have it side mounted/angled dwn

It pretty much only moves side to side .If you have a large tank you should get 2 if you want even lighting.i use a lighted bubble wand lighted bar on the bottom of my tank ,with the top light on it looks pretty cool.everyone who sees it comments on the lighting. I change up the colors on the bottom bar so its always different.Hope this helps.

You should be able to angle the lights. The air bubbles may not work properly, however, if you do not have the bubble strip the right way.

The lights are not adjustable, however I have it at the top of my aquarium and it illuminates the entire 4ft aquarium very well.

I thought I had added product to the right section but didn't notice until you messaged me. I meant to add product to the lights section not the entire tank. I have the two lights for sale not the aquarium. I am very sorry for the misunderstanding.

I've only tried installing it in a wall mounted reading light (the bulb mounts up instead of down) but I'm going to say that the angle is at least 180 degrees and maybe just a bit more. I was surprised in that I can't see a shadow line like I might expect since the dome/lens is only on the upper hemisphere. The light dispersion seems to be very good. Hope that helps.

Yes it can be mounted upside down. I had an electrician install my light he asked which orientation I wanted it to be mounted. It had't occurred to me that it could be facing down.

No, unfortunately, the brackets are designed to be at a certain angle to support the rod from side wall to side wall, not flat against one wall. Because I have a corner tub, I wanted to mount it at an angle, but I had to modify my plans to accommodate the inflexibility of the bracket setup.

hi-if I am not mistaken, the 60* = the amount of angle from vertical the light can be adjusted. I can adjust mine this far with the mounting bracket provided. hope this helps.

The light can be mounted on a standard 1/4" screw, as on a tripod mount. My light stands have baby studs that have that kind of quarter inch screw poking out the end. FZ96 comes with a swivel widget that allows the light to be tilted. I power the lights using a little 12v power brick (about $5 - and make sure you get the correct pin size- 2.5mm I think). That eliminates the weight of batteries and makes so you can use even very lightweight stands.

assuming this is a freshwater planted tank, the good thing about hanging fixtures is you can adjust the height of the fixtures. I would saying having two would be ideal, and give an even amount of light over the entire length and depth of your tank. having only one would give you enough light in the tank under which the light is positioned. but having two would give you more even light over the entire tank. Unless you want to create different sectors of your tank for low light and high light I would use two. With two you can still create those different sections, by adjusting the height of each fixture, and also give you the ability to change different areas of the tank any time you want. assuming this is a freshwater planted tank, the good thing about hanging fixtures is you can adjust the height of the fixtures.

The section that has the light in it can continue flipping around all of the way until it bottoms out against the other sections. For example the picture show in the ad shows the light pointing to the right as its in an almost vertical shining position. The top section could keep flipping all of the way around so as to form a triangle and be pointing off to the left in an upward direction. Hope this helps. Also, there are no mounting slots or holes to hang it on anything. I imagine you could make this thing point about anywhere you'd like with some creativity. The only negative I have is that I wish that the plug would have been placed at the other end of the base....not that big of a deal but it would have worked better for me and how I use it.

Not sure if the exact angle is that important. In nature, sun light is emitted onto plants at all angles at different times. I have used this brand of LED lights for fresh water plants for years. The plants grow and multiply, and that was what i wanted. During water changes, I now need to heavily trim the plants, or the aquarium is over whelmed by the plants. I never had this type of growth with the old bulbs. Hope I have answered your question. I have also found these lights to be much better than other LED's I have tried out. The oldest light I have, has been used daily for over 5 years without any of the LEDs going dark. Not sure if the exact angle is that important.

This is surface/flush mount. You may not use a chain to offset mount the fixture

I am not using this as a slider on my tank. I have it setting on top with a screen and it site on top of the tank rim and then I can still pull my screen out without removeing the light fixture. It is a great light and very strong out put though. Hope this help and sorry about the late resonse. this want to my work email and I was off Thur through Sun.

The way the have the clamp design you can adjust every which way possible. I was also questioning the mounting positions previously.I would say it swivels on the mounting axis. I mount mine on my portabote somewhere in the middle of my side hull which is curved at an angle and slanted. The adjustments on the clamp allows me to still mount it vertically in the water. Kudos!!...so no worries about how crazy your mounting area is. It will work.

the lights can't be chained togeather. When I had my lights in the water on the bottom of the aquarium, I didn't like the look. You could see each LED lite. I have them ontop of the tank shining down into the water. Much nicer, I think

Mine is wall-mounted but I can't see any reason you couldn't hook it to the side of the tank. In fact, it could be easy to arrange and less obvious to the casual observer.

I've never seen any other tank mounts for this. If you are not doing a planted tank I wouldn't use this light. Why don't you look at the cheaper Marineland Single Bright LED or the Marineland ML Double Bright LED. Their mounts might work better for your application.
