Best light rail is Will’s @Turkeysammich
His is mechanical up n down

It’s very simple. It’s just an electronic standing desk. You can get one on fb marketplace for free. The two motor one is better that the single if your lights are super heavy.
Anyways. Just remove the desk top. Drill out the end holes. I used ecotech rms light rail cuz I had it but anything will work. I chopped the legs off and welded a two T legs. I can weld it for you if you need. Ran an extension cable for the controller. That it.

@CaseyP probably has the best TV mount light rack I've seen: https://www.bareefers.org/forum/threads/caseys-red-sea-s-1000.33335/post-484431

The only downside is that I cannot move it up and down, only back and forth, so you have to get it right the first time mounting to the wall, or hang the lights from the rail so they're adjustable. If this was a smaller lighter setup, I would've considered the monitor arms that use a gas piston to move up and down.

With that I'd imagine it would be hard to get the light pointed horizontal and hold really any weight at all.

It’s a work in progress. You don’t want to see under the aquarium. Lol.
