Safest ways to hang T5 hood?

Hi everyone! I just got a new enclosure that is 4x2x2 ft. I want to make sure that I hang the T5 UVB the right way. I know to do it on the inside of the enclosure but I am petrified about it falling on him. With my old enclosure I just cut a hole in the screen, but that wont work with this one. Anyone have any safe ideas? Any responses are appreciated. Thanks!

Your fixture should have mounting clips the screw into the top of the viv and then the fixture snaps into them. An earthquake couldn’t knock it down I know because I’ve moved it a couple of times in the enclosure and it was really hard to get the fixture to pop out of the brackets lol. I have a sunblaster t5 fixture and it comes with the mounting clips.

Same size Zen tank I used 30 lb fishing line strung through the mesh top and hung inside of the tank right against the top. I use fishing line for hanging all types of things outside here in the desert southwest and it never fails.

Swordtail has been doing a whole lot of "Lizard yoga" lately
Currently trying not to stress over my anemic dragon....she is being treated, but I don't agree with her treatment plan and have been seeking out a second opinion from another vet. If anyone else has dealt with anemia, please let me know how it was resolved. I am losing sleep over this :cry:
Another post lol. My beardie does not like enclosures. Her tank is the kids room and she has created a nesting/bed spot in the corner. She will cuddle with my son but she know when the lights are out and the kids go to sleep, she literally goes to her bed like she is our 3rd baby. I love her. And to think, I never wanted a beardie lol
Please help. My beardie is my baby and I am worried she may be egg bound but I can't tell. She is over 2 yrs old and has never laid an egg. She has been swollen for two days and can't tell if she may be impacted or egg bound. Please help.
I'm still looking to adopt. I live near Homerville Georgia.
