Well I changed the ends (whatever the plastic thing is in the second pic of my first post is) and the lights are working great! Its been on for a few hours now and no buzzing, smoke or explosions so far. :headbang2 Im glad thats all it was. A cheap fix at under $10 CAD.


I wont be putting it back ontop of the tank just yet. Im not confident that the water will stay out of it. Im going to get a new piece of plastic for the top of the tank. Theres just to many gaps where water can get in the way I have it now.

Anyway thanks for the help guys.


Enjoy the victory pics!:nilly:
