    Alt PAR sensor holders?

    Anyone have any good holders for the PAR sensor, other than the reef rock that comes with it? I have a small freshwater tank, and the reef rock is a little big and doesn't go with the decor. :-)

    I'll DIY something, but wondered if anyone already had a solution. I'll try something for each of the following:

    1) something smaller to attach the probe to, to set it on the bottom. Ideally would be as close to the circumference of the sensor itself as possible, but needs to be heavy enough to hold it in place with the cable.
    2) a holder that I can suction cup to the side of the tank

    Seems like I could use the leveling screw to attach something to it.

    Anyone tried any of this already?

    It's not a leveling screw - it's for mounting to a mount of some sort, such as a plate of something. At one time, I had the sensor mounted to a disk of thin acrylic; the disc and sensor was set on the bottom of the tank and held in place by sand.
