two questoins. both short and sweet:

1). what is the best way to hang a light with no hanging hardware? the tank is going ot be longer than the light, so i cant use the built-in legs. i will be using a canopy. light is a 8X54W T5, and the tank will be 60"X18"

2. for my fuge, i am going to be using a 36" light. however, i only wan thalf of it exposed. this light is a 2X26W T5. whats the safest way to cover a light?

any info would be great! thanks
