How to place the Reptisun

[NYDragon]

Hi! I'm thinking of switching from a MVB to a reptisun but was wondering how I should go about mounting it. I have a 75g and I generally keep the screen top off. So how would I get the tube in place? In so confused!

Someone else posted pictures of their setup several months ago which I loosely followed. I simply cut a cheap wire hanger in the middle, stuck the two ends in the mounting slots of the light fixture and hung it over the edge of the cage. I had to bend the wire hanger a bit to get it secure, but it's not going anywhere. Our beardie paws at it all the time.

To get the reptisun inside the tank I cut a piece of 1/4" plywood so it sat on the inside lip of the tank and mounted the light fixture to that. It does not interfere with the screen lid and no modifications have to be made to the lid.
