    hi lance

    you could bring you MH to chan or tan to extend he wire for you as i am pretty sure either of the two mentioned will help you.

    next you need to get raw plugs, two hook scew, a large plastic sheet(if your tank is already started)and a hammer drill.

    Place the sheet of plastic over your tank. try to get one of your family members to help you by holding the MH lamps where you would like to place in your tank. mark the ceiling by holding the wire up.

    drill the holes...if you have help, use a vacum cleaner to suck up the concrete dust. The hole should be deep enough for the raw plug to go completely flat into the ceiling. Next will be fitting the hook screw.

    hook on the MH and adjust the height.
