The ones in my 5th have a one inch wide metal strap that goes around the middle of the tank. It has a quick lever type latching mechanism. It not some cheap plastic strap like your picture shows.

John&Bet - The straps ARE metal. Both of them have a latch to secure them in place. The straps are about 7/8" wide each. The top one failed right where the screw goes into the wall. A close exam shows that it was metal fatigue from flexing, and the screw hole weakened that particular area.
