I am starting over again and buying a rimless tank I noticed tha all rimless tanks have haning light. Problem is i have vaulter ceiling is there another type of light I can use? My assumption is you dont put tops on rimless tanks plus its only eighteen inches height. Are their lights that clamp on the side I saw it on a few but couldnt find the name

You could make a bracket that you can hang lights from. Something like this:

My preference is having 2 arms come up from behind the tank and out over the tank to suspend the lights. This is the option I am going with on my new tank.
