Height of docking legs?

BigAl07 · 05-21-2007, 02:15 PM

Calling all Current USA Satellite owners....

What is the height of the "Docking Mounts (legs)" for this unit? I am trying to order one of these lights but I have a HOB refugium of which the pipes protrude slightly into the tank. I need to know if the legs lift it enough to make up the difference or will it interfere?

Also, are the legs designed in such a way that allows for sliding adjustments? Like will they adjust enough to be able to use the 24" or 30" light kit on my 20" tank without modifying the unit?

I am not sure about Current USA but I know the coralife fixtures have horizontally adjustable sliding legs.

Thanks for the input! I just got off the phone and ordered a Coralife 24" 130W to go on my 10g 20" tank. This should put some extra light in my life. Hopefully the adjustable legs will allow me to accommodate the HOB pipes without modifications. I ended up getting the 24" for $109 which is a pretty good deal for this amount of light
24" Coralife Aqualight 130w Double Linear Strip Light

I was shopping online and ended up buying on the INTERNET from a company that's less than 5 miles from where I am shipping. Go figure!!
