is that where the light move over the top of the tank slowly?

I have seen this in a LFS, it didnt turn out and the sps almost died IMO due to a lack of light....I think it is better to have a light over your tank all the time and not moving.

I purchased the griplock system...I am designing my lighting above an open top tank that is designed for looking down upon clams. I wanted easy access to moving the lights for cleanign and viewing purposes. It is a a great little design. I will have pics of my lighting as I get it hooked up with shots of the griplock system if anyone is interested, hopefully this weekend. Check them out at Griplock systems

The grip lock stuff looks cool, is there any website that sells them?

Orion,
click on the website and shoot off an email, they have made a couple reef tank lighting options/kits due to interest from reefers. The guy I dealt with was very nice. He sent me a pdf file on the kits and I could pick which I wanted. I tried to find it directly on the website and couldn't this morning. I am not sure...maybe a specialty thing. The code on my invoice is 120" Tank Light Suspension Set with a paragraph description of the parts. The 120" refers to the length of aircraft cable they sent me, there are different sizes/styles of quick release grippers. I am in process still...pics will be along in the next week or two. I found a link on the "other board" some months back and thought the clean look of it was sweet. I am planning on it looking very similar to the picture posted in the link below from SLS website, only I am using the grip lock kit.
