This two-part system enables tilting and aiming the fixture, which the older Hydra 32HD\/64HD did not require since their brackets were already included in the HMS Single Arm Kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the HMS Single Arm Kit work on rimmed tanks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HMS Single Arm Kit is designed for rimless aquariums with a maximum glass thickness of 1.2 in. (3 cm). For rimmed tanks, verify that the clamp can accommodate the total thickness including the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich bracket do I need — 44HD or 68HD?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bracket must match your specific light model. The 44HD Mounting Bracket is exclusively for the Hydra Edge 44HD and 44HD Freshwater. The 68HD Mounting Bracket is exclusively for the Hydra Edge 68HD.
