Moonlight info anyone?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
How are the fish reacting to the new light??? do they seem to notice you less, or do the not see you at all??

I like the light that casts, gives the tank the look, if that intake weren't there, of having a great white come out from the dark into the light!
 
this is what i have in my 45g

I have 2 that come on when the main lights go off. they have 2 colors nocturnal blue and moon white. I tried the nocturnal blue, but didn't care for it because it was to bright and un-natural looking (to me anyways). So I returned them and got the whites, and they where exactly the look and brightness I was looking for.
 
I have 10 blue and 10 red LED on my 100gal .I play with LED all the time . I have then on everything . From my tank to my wet/dry and i have them inside my skimmer . The bubble look go in green .

that just looks like a lightsaber... vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm
 
The light is great because at night I can come and sit in front of the tank, with the lights off around me, and just watch them swim around. The smaller fish typically stick to the light, while the Piranhas jsut swim all over the tank. I almost would rather that the tank was always in the dark becuase I enjoy the look of it so much.
 
i made my own just give me abit and i will post the details
 
I bought a 36" LED moonlight off of Ebay for about $35. I think it has 18 LEDs. I love it. The only thing I didn't like is it didn't have a switch so I stole one off of my old lava lamp. Now I'm good to go!
 
Ok first you need to got to autozone.pepboys,or any place that sells led lights for cars that run on 12v.

then you need to get a power converter that converts 110v to 6-12v(the lower the volts the dimmer the lights)

then wire the lights up under the light stripe or where ever you desire to put them.lights 001.jpg
you can add the switch if you want to but led never burn out so their is really no need.
and i will post a pic of them on when it gets dark..
so give me some feed back on wheather you like the idea or not..
